Reading something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue
So… After I thoroughly exhausted myself packing for a weekend up in the mountains, I sat down to check my email and voila, J.K. Rowling announces a new novel!
Squeeee — suddenly I’m not sleepy at all! This is like, a whole new era for me (hello, Dianne, are you reading this?!?), for all of us, who grew up reading Harry Potter! And I was just blogging about the new additions to my HP collection a few posts back!
Finally, here is the winner of my Linamnam giveaway!
I really enjoyed reading the entries. I got so hungry every time I read your comments <insert emergency midnight fridge raids here>, hahaha!
My friend, the ultimate Suplado Stanley Chi, has a new book out: Suplado Tips 2!
Stan is one of the busiest people I know (myself included!), with two comic strips (Chopsticks and Copy+Paste on Manila Bulletin), a radio show (The Suplado Show on Dig Radio), a TV show (Hecklines on GMA News TV), a YouTube channel, stand up comedy gigs, a Suplado watch endorsement, and now five books under his belt!
If you’re wondering what the book is about, think of it as a Filipino “Bro Code” with a crazy cult following. And if you want to be part of the craze, win a copy of Suplado Tips 2 by drawing fan art for Suplado Tips and sending it to emailstanleychi@gmail.com.
Philippine children’s illustrators group Ang Ilustrador ng Kabataan (Ang INK) is currently open for new members!
To those looking into getting their own written work published, there’s a free book writing seminar scheduled this Thursday, Nov. 24, 5-7 pm at the Filipinas Heritage Library.
