Background
Information
Paul was born in Manila, Philippines to Filipino parents. He attended catholic schools including the prestigious Ateneo de Manila University. While attending the Ateneo, he curtailed his studies and went to attend the University of San Francisco, instead. When he was 17, he migrated to the United States, first Chicago and then the Bay Area. Currently, he lives in Portland, Oregon.

The first was "Pretty and Nowhere to Go" and then came "A Cottage in Another Country", "Deconstructing Connor" and "Poetry in America". He also writes blogs.

After reading his novels, his readers will feel a sense of catharsis that all are bound to be what it ought to be.
