Last Friday, I gave a talk on creative writing and facilitated a story-writing workshop for grade school teachers who came from different parts of the Philippines. The participants of my class were very lucky, because they each got to take home a set of Oishi Peso Smart books they can take home to study and which they also promised to share with their students. Thank you to Mr Carlson Chan of Liwayway Marketing Corporation for the book bundles. And thank you to Ms. Marie Angeles and Ms. Dali Soriano of Sa Aklat Sisikat for giving me the opportunity to be a part of this conference.
