REFLECTION… a dream come true

I have but one goal for 2011 as far as writing and blogging is concerned – to get my own book published. It was in 2009 when I got a taste of how it was to be part of a printed book via Inspirational Thoughts and Stories from Blogger All Over the World, and again, [...]

Meeting the Kapampangan artists

“What’s your field of discipline?” I was asked by the girl at the registration, and I reluctantly replied, “Writing?” She looked at me like I didn’t make sense at all, paused for a while, and finally wrote “Literary” under my name on the nameplate.
