#Ely🦉: as for the genre, we are seven writers with different areas of expertise. we've gathered with a collective understanding and drive in writing, pero meron pa rin kaming iba't ibang gustong isulat na genre. but knowing resfenos? we love to explore the limits of our capabilities—looking far ahead already. as we all know, HVS gives off that heavy drama and romance genre, and we all want to try fantasy, thriller, and (afaik) history. hehehehehehe 🤓 ayan palang naman ang napag-iisipan, malay niyo meron pa

#Mikay 🐨 : uhm ...... ayun like what ely said, dunno pa po pero for sure, most likely, it would be something na mahihirapan na naman kami mag plot—? 😭 yk, genres na challenging for all of us manoks ganun we r love to explore din kasi. like fantasy, hisfic ? hahahaahha jusq

#Xia 🐶 : resfenos welcomed me with the opportunity to write a genre na hindi ko forte, that's why i would def love the idea of exploring genres with them; kahit ano pa 'yan 😇

#Mera 😺 : personally, fantasy or mystery-thriller ang gusto kong i-explore because ayon go-to genres ko when reading. but like resfenos, i'm open to exploring other genres too. 💗 we'll see where the tide takes us!

📬 #AskResfenos
Q: What are the strengths of each member ng resfenos if you guys can elaborate it? kahit isa lang sumagot hehe

#Ely🦉: Isa-isahin ko ang mga anak ko from oldest to youngest, para rin alam niyo sino pinakamatanda keme

#Ely🦉: First, si Aru. Strengths in terms of writing, she's really good with writing narratives, especially third person. To sum it all up, parang pwede ngang pang international 'yung libro niya. You know the international books you can read na may mga third povs? Ganon. Her words flow like water, move along a thread—it's so natural. That even if sabihin niyang hindi siya magaling sa Tagalog words—you won't feel it with how she writes narratives in English.

#Ely🦉: Next, Tenshi. You can feel the connection with her characters; as if they exist. 'Yung tipong kahit patay na parang nandyan pa rin? Ganon 😭 And she's good with consistency and summarizing things up. Consistency in terms of writing, you won't feel her lacking in any sense. And I noticed how she makes things make sense. Sa amin, kapag nag-uusap kami, and there are a lot of things we're trying to say, si Tenshi 'yung mahuhuling magsasalita and her words sums up the things we've all been talking about—that's her. She'd be like, "So parang ganito..." "Pwede naman, it's like..." It sums everything up. And we're thankful for that.

#Ely🦉: Then, si Mikay. Our artistic friend. The one with the golden hand. The one who makes our ideas come to life. The one who create our visions. If we're the thinker, she's the doer. Sobrang galing lang talaga ng kamay ni Mikay. The creativity is overflowing in her hands—you can feel it and you can see it sa mga gawa niya—book covers, pubmats, the pixiedusts namin—everything is utterly amazing.

#Ely🦉: For Xia. The humorous one. The one who fills our group chat with laughter, and her fun doesn't end there, it stretches beyond her works. Light read? Go for Xia's. Breather? Go for her epistolary. If you want a good laugh? Read her stories. It speaks so much character and speaks so much about her humor, sobrang galing. Kapag nalulungkot ako, I just find myself reading her stories to get myself a good laugh. She's so good with that—tells a lot about her I believe, how funny she actually is. Aside from that, she's someone you can talk to with anything in general. Astrology? Xia. Life? Xia. Jokes? Xia. Music? Xia.

#Ely🦉: Si Mera naman. What a witty one ever since. You never fail to amaze us with your wits, you never fail to fill our minds with your ideas. It's like hindi ka nauubusan. And to have someone like her in your circle—in your life—feels like a need. Your mind speaks beyond factual things, it speaks with personality and character. Kapag ubos na ako ng idea, she's there to complete it all up. Si Mera ang tatapos. Si Mera ang kukumpleto. You can see that in her works, very detailed and intricate.

#Ely🦉: Our baby bunso, Zoe. Like all other bunso out there, you're our happy pill. But it doesn't end there. You are more than a good laugh and more than the bunso that gives us a smile at the end of the day. Si Zoe 'yung tipong magpapaalala sa'yo na wala sa edad 'yan, that even if she's the youngest among us, she gives us something to ponder about. We learn from her—a mind not so distant from us, but as fresh as a child. She explores like what the inner child in us didn't get to do. And we all can learn from someone like her. Wala siya now kasi full storage 😭 nagdelete ng tg

#Ely🦉: that's all guys! magshower pa ako, last question na raw muna 'yan for tonight, bukas uli. dami pang tanong 😓

#Xia 🐶 : Siyempre hindi p'wedeng mawala si Ely! She's the leader, the initiator, the mother, the moment, the icon—charot, jokes aside! She has really great talent in writing and that itself is her whole strength. She is a writer. With her adventurous nature, she's very versatile. From writing a novel that gained a lot of supports (well deserved) to becoming an epistolary writer who's nailing the banters her character expresses. Editor pa 'yan tapos seller. Jack of all trades 'yan!

Moreover, I'm a firm believer that Ely keeps us together. Her heart and determination is a strength, indeed. We wouldn't make it as Resfenos for three years without her. Nabanggit ko na ata dati 'to—we all need an Ely in our lives ❤️‍🩹

yun oh

nag soft hours pa talaga tayo
