Cecilia Brainard Book at the Manila International Book Fair #MIBF

Here's the short video promo I did for the Manila International Book Fair on behalf of the University of Santo Tomas Publishing House. This is airing today along with others by USTPH authors, live on the MIBF site. I'm sharing this video for your convenience.

My book and my other USTPH Titles (SELECTED SHORT STORIES BY CECILIA MANGUERRA BRAINARD, WHEN THE RAINBOW GODDESS WEPT, MAGDALENA, and THE NEWSPAPER WIDOW) are available in the Philippines from Lazada and Shopee. In the US, these are easily available from Amazon, Barnes and Noble.

Enjoy the video!
