Elaine Marie Factor is a writing teacher of local and international students across all age groups. She is also a registered editor, author/writer, and subject matter expert with the National Book Development Board Philippines. Within and beyond her professional work, she finds calm in arts and gains confidence through prayer. Her world stops when she reads and listens to stories, whether true or imagined.
At age 24, Elaine wrote Feast Books’ Finding You: A Memoir on Dreams, Detours, and Destiny, which became a finalist in the Youth Category of the Jaime Cardinal Sin Catholic Book Awards 2017. She later published an e-poetry collection titled Gentle Words (2018) and Scribbling from Memory (2022), a nonfiction book that delves into memoir as both an art and a form. She has edited award-winning titles and worked on biographies of public servants and businessmen in the Philippines and abroad. Her articles and essays have appeared in Feast Magazine, FiSH Magazine, Angel Rising Magazine, Didache, Didache Youth, Gabay, and Yapak PH.
Elaine is a member of Biographers International Organization and Book Development Association of the Philippines. As the Founder and Managing Director of Scribblory Writing and Tutorial Services, she helps writers and authors across the Philippines and some parts of the globe. Through this, she formed a group of memoirists called Scribblory Writers Group who have been the primary contributing writers of the e-magazine, Memento. Under Scribblory, she offers the following services: writing tutorials, writing workshops, writing classes, editing, proofreading, and biography writing.
