Will you have a book tour in the Philippines?
I hope so…
Yes! Please visit this page and scroll down to the Philippine video https://marivisoliven.com/events/
Do you think you’d come further up the East Coast? Like CT/NY/NJ? There’s a huge Filipino community there and I’d love to be able to meet you! 🙂
I would love to come to New York and New Jersey, perhaps in the fall…
Hi Camille,
I’m reading at The Philippine Center this Wednesday, October 9 at 6 – check the link to my Book Tour for details!
I read about you and your book in the latest issue of the Asian Journal. Just found out today from a friend that you are coming to SF. I will definitely be there, will not pass up on this opportunity to meet you.
Will there be enough books sold at your SF reading/signing?
Hi, Marivi,
Anna sent me the book, and I am about a third of the way through. I love it! Unfortunately we will be in Maine when you visit DC. Are you coming to LASA? Anna and her kids will be there. Congratulations on a terrific accomplishment.
All the best,
Livy More
Thanks, Livy! Glad to hear you’re enjoying the story!

Hi, I manage the City Heights Farmers Market and Emily from Traveling Stories said you’ll be coming to read in February. Will you put the event here on your site and send me a bio about your children books? Thanks!
Thanks, Christy, I will do that today.
