The Struggling Blogger

If I write, will you read? If I beg, will you feed?

What’s next for The Struggling Blogger?

This is what I was afraid of – to accomplish what I wish to accomplish… and then, become bored. I was able to conquer my stage fright and talked about writer’s block in iBlog7, I was finally able to publish my poetry book, and I even had a grand book launching to boot. Now, I’m [...]

iBlog7 speakership is a go!

This is a photo of the podium in iBlog6 I’ve taken last year. I posted this, along with other pictures of the event, in my photoblog… and my caption for this photo was, “Someday, I could be behind this box.” And I was just trying to be witty in my photo captions then… it was [...]

iBlog6: The UP Concert Chorus intermission number

Just because the iBlog6 blogging summit is all about blogging, it doesn’t mean the day’s proceedings would be confined to search engine optimization, making money online and niche marketing. After all, blogging involved a medley of interests. That is why it is not surprising that in the recent iBlog6, there was an intermission number performed [...]

iBlog5: The 5th Philippine Blogging Summit

My Bad! I almost forgot about this event — the 5th Philippine Blogging Summit, and the deadline for registration is already on April 30, 2009! I actually registered here as early as February, and because of two many blogs to take care of, it slipped my mind. I do hope it is not yet too [...]
