I'm half Filipino and trying to get in touch with my more of my roots to include the culture in my writing. Would love recommendations of authors to read, past and present. :)

Hi to everyone! I hope you're all still here. My name's Miriam, and while I'm not writing about the Philippines specifically, I'm incorporating bits and pieces of the culture in my secondary world fantasy. So they have isaw and jeepneys and aswang, though everything's a little bit shaken up. :)

I hope everyone could talk a bit about their work too.

I notice you're interested in fantasy, so... I recommend Dean and Nikki Alfar (both living) and Nick Joaquin (deceased). ;)
