Aside from a teleserye with onscreen partner Alden Richards and a film set to be released this year, Kapuso star Maine Mendoza is currently working as the writer of her own book.
Despite her busy schedule, Maine has never forgotten her passion to write if she has free time. Her vacation in the US is one of the reasons why she has plenty of time to write the contents of her book.
The book is reportedly about Maine’s presonal experiences. She said in one of her past interviews, “I am currently working on my book. Another reason why I find it really hard to make time for myself and other things because I have weekly deadlines for the book! Actually kaya dala ko itong laptop ko kasi magsusulat pa din ako sa Amerika.”
What would be the edge of Maine’s book compared to others?
“I’m writing it. Ito kasi, talagang ako ang nagsusulat. Walang ghostwriter. Ako ngayon, pinaghahandaan ko talaga ‘yung lahat ng isusulat ko,” she said.
The book can be as meaningful as her personal blog, “The Pessimistic Optimistic Bella”, which she has been maintaining for more than 5 years. Like her blog posts, the content of Maine’s book will be very personal.
The 22-year-old also added, “It’s more about my personal life — my personal experiences, my feelings. It’s not just about Yaya Dub or the characters I have played in the movies or TV. It’s really about Maine Mendoza.”
She further stressed that she can manage to accept everybody’s opinions at the time of the book’s release
“Ako kasi, sobrang pessimistic akong tao. Kaya nasanay na rin ako. I really take time to visit their accounts para basahin yung sinasabi nila sa akin. I check pero hindi ako nagre-respond sa kanila. Tinitignan ko lang yung mga sinasabi nila sa akin. Weird but it doesn’t affect me that much; it actually feeds me. In a way, feeling ko nagiging motivation ko rin yung bashers,” she explained.
Moreover, the book is set for release this year by Summit Book, the same company that published Alden’s book “In My Own Words”
