Last Thursday towards sundown, we sang the song Today once again. “… I’ll be a dandy and I’ll be a rover/ You’ll know who I am by the songs that I sing./ I’ll feast at your table, I’ll sleep in your clover./ Who cares what tomorrow shall bring?”

Writers Night 2013 went off last Dec. 6 in UP Diliman with nary a hitch, thanks to tremendous support from the Philippine writing community (and, of course, from my staff at the Institute of Creative Writing).

                    [Summary] => 
It isn’t every day or even every year that a Filipino author gets published by Penguin Books — I can think of only Jose Rizal, Jose Garcia Villa, Jessica Hagedorn, and Miguel Syjuco, off the top of my head — so when Marivi Soliven told me a couple of years ago that her new novel The Mango Bride (New York: NAL Accent, 2013) had been picked up by a division of Penguin, I immediately sent her a congratulatory note.

Enter the gallery and a pair of wooden sculpture with carved literary text – a handcrafted door and a slab showing Jose Rizal in repose, with Josephine – by National Artist Napoleon Abueva greet you to your right. Beside Billy’s door hangs another "literary hybrid" – with text and pictograms on clear acrylic float. Titled "Freddie Heiroglyph (for Alfrredo Navarro Salanga)," the artwork by Cesare A.X. Syjuco includes a poem, also his.
