Welcome to my casual, independently run publication (ok, it's a newsletter) that I like to call my moon mail. Moon mail started a few years ago when I wanted a creative writing outlet with less pressure, and now we're here. A new platform. Mostly the same topics: writing, life updates and musings from a Filipina Canadian entrepreneur, mother and filmmaker.
Moon mail used to be sent around the full moon, but will now be sent on or around the four phases of the moon (New Moon, First Quarter, Full Moon, and Third Quarter) with the intention of updating you on my creative projects and hopefully inspire you to honor your own creative spirit.
If you subscribe today, you'll get full access to the website as well as email newsletters about new content when it's available. Your subscription makes this site possible, and allows me to continue to exist and create. Thank you!
