I'll be off to Pangasinan to attend the induction of the new officers of the Ulupan na Pansiansia'y Salitan Pangasinan (Association for the Preservation of the Pangasinan Language) in Lingayen at 1:00pm on January 31, 2004. I'll be 33 years old on the same date :)

NCCA Announces 2003 Writers Prize Winners

The National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) announces the winners of the Writers Prize, a biennial writing grant awarded to five writers in the following categories: novel, short story (including children’s stories), poetry, essay, and translation. Each of the winners will receive a P200,000 grant to free them from the demands of work and allow them to focus on their writing projects.

The 2003 Writers Prize awardees are: Mes de Guzman (Novel); Virginia Mercado-Villanueva (Short Story); Francis Macansantos (Poetry); Eugene Evasco (Essay); and Helen Bañez (Translation). They were chosen by a pool of distinguished writers and literary critics from close to 200 entries. The awarding ceremonies will be held on February 27, 2003 at 6 p.m. at the NCCA Bldg, Intramuros, Manila.

Congratulations to the winners!
