moi, mwah!
Spanky tells me to update. Nagsalita ang nag-uupdate hehe.
Anyway, so excited because Canvas texted me yesterday that they're going to make SOL into a fully-illustrated book! Yehey!
Oh menn, joined the contest last year and I didn't win the grand prize. Of course, Becky's story deserved it. :) I remember writing in my journal on the day they were going to announce the winner-- I proclaimed, "I am going to win the 2005 Canvas writing for children contest and SOL will be made into a wonderful book with wonderful illustrations!!!" Of course, hindi naman nagkatotoo. (I was tapping into the "visualization is the first step in achieving your goal" mantra chorva.) I even drew a mock cover of my "suppposed book" and wrote:
Story by: Agay C. Llanera
Paintings by: Elmer Borlongan
Hehe, kapalmuks nga. But you can't stop a girl from wishing.
Sabi ko nga kay Augie, "Ito na ang premyo ko after countless losses in writing contests." 'Coz really, I join the Palanca and the PBBY every year pero parati akong Ow-lats. Sabi niya lang, "Asus, sali lang nang sali."
Sooooh, that text yesterday was totally unexpected. And an up-and-coming artist, Marcel Antonio has agreed to do the illustrations. I'm so excited! And I just can't hide it!
