The 1st Madrangca Writers Workshop for Children’s Literature in Kinaray-a – Day 2 🌷

This was honestly one of the most productive weekends I’ve ever had. I’m glad I decided to join, even though I was hesitant at first since I thought writing in Kinaray-a would be really challenging. But I ended up enjoying the series of writing workshops that Sir Alex prepared for us. It was a fun experience to spend those two days challenging myself to come up with story ideas for every prompt he gave. We wrapped up the weekend with five finished short stories each, and it was definitely a memorable one for us as the pioneer batch of the Madrangca Writers Workshop.

My September was filled with all sorts of side quests, including two writing workshops. This was the first one, held last September 16, which I got to attend as a member of the Panday Dila Writers' Collective. It was definitely a productive day, filled with new learnings and discoveries, especially since it was my first time joining a Kinaray-a workshop.

We also went on a short tour of the Paghabül sa Antique textile gallery at the National Museum of the Philippines–Antique, and ended the day at EBJ Freedom Park, where we learned more about Evelio Javier's life and legacy.

how do you s̶t̶o̶p̶ start growing up?

Since entering my twenties, it’s become my yearly tradition to write a blog post about my birthday as a way to reflect on my growth. This blog is my safe space, kind of like a digital journal where I share my personal writings. Here's my birthday scribbles that I wrote last August:

A little introduction for this page °❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･
Hi! I’m August, a local published author, bookworm, and artist. I’ve been writing for more than a decade now, but only started taking it more seriously this year. Hence, this page.

Welcome to my tiny corner of the internet where I'll be sharing my writings, art, and musings. I hope you find a safe and cozy space here. (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶) ✨
