This may be too late an announcement, but this is a self-imposed initiative for having been part of the growing family in its 10th edition (yeah, just last year), which I think would be my last following my participation in Dumaguete and Iligan workshops back in 2008. I have learned a lot from this gathering. And I hope for the same thing to the new fellows listed below:

Honestly I think Iyas is a very good springboard/starter workshop for most beginning writers. I think you might disagree, but that's my two cents for now. Let's compare workshop thoughts once I see you in Duma.
I'm happy for these kids who got in. They'll be fattened up in more ways than one haha
: I think it is too; it met my expectations. Hehe. The panelists were good. And in this year, there's Ma'am Marj Evasco! Goodness, every time I get into a workshop, she's not there! Tsk tsk. Parang di kami meant na magkita. Haha.
Yeah, let's compare notes in Duma! You leaving on Sunday? Me excited.
