Here with me today is Maida Malby.
Filipino-American author Maida Malby cooks up foodie, multicultural, and contemporary destination romance stories filled with heat, sizzle, spice, and a whole lotta love.
She is a member of select writing groups and romance book clubs. Her To-Be-Read Mountain and book reviews are featured here on her blog Carpe Diem Chronicles. Readers can also find her on Lone Star Literary Life via her regular Texas Reads Roundup Romance column.
When not writing, reading, or reviewing books, Maida discusses current affairs with her husband, records her son’s Travels and Eats videos, cooks the dishes she features in her stories, procrastibakes more often than she should, and watches golf and food shows on TV.
In this episode, we talked about FOREVERMORE: a romance anthology, out today, which is the follow on to PASKO NA, MY LOVE, the anthology she edited and spearheaded last year. We also talked about Filipino-American joy, the Filipino grandmother as a unifying character in recent popular media and Filipino culture, her role as editor and publisher of the anthology, and her wise words about success in the business of publishing.
