Philippine Genre Stories

The Bibliophile Stalker does one of the things that he he does best and provides us with recordings of the talks he attended on Day 1 of The Philippine Writers Festival. Will he do the same for Day 2 and 3? I hope so, since there are those of us who won't be able to go because of work.

Thanks for linking, Ken, and thanks to Charles for uploading the recordings! Since I'm a night person, I could only attend the panels scheduled after lunch, and was late for the first panel I was interested in -- 'Writing for a Living'. With the recording, I can now listen to the 20 minutes or so I missed. I was also interested in attending the three parallel panels in the latter part of the afternoon, and because I don't have superpowers, could only attend one -- 'Filipino-ness in the Global Age.' Missed 'Writing Off-Center: The Regional Experience' and 'Atbp: Writing off the Mainstream.' With Charles' recording, at least I could listen to the latter, and then the morning session -- 'Ganito Kami Noon: Writing Through the Decades.' (I also felt bad because Jason Chanchoco, a panelist in the Regional Experience discussions is a kababayan from Iriga City. Hopefully, someone else was able to record that panel?)

I was meaning to record parts of the talks with my digital cam video, but to my dismay, found out that I didn't bring any memory card! I think it would be a great idea if all of the attendees will make an effort to record the remaining discussions (and upload? :)) since I wasn't sure all the panels were being recorded officially from beginning to end -- I was only aware of Vic Nierva going around from panel to panel shooting video.

Hi, Dino. Unfortunately, Charles won't be attending Day 2 (though he may be able to make Day 3). I myself might not make any of the days! So to anyone attending, please bring your recorders and upload to your blogs, then let me know so I can link up. TY!
