Meet and greet, book swap and merienda on Saturday, 23 November, 4-6 pm at WSI in Makati
With Drogon the cat, and have your picture taken with him…if he’s amenable (You can’t tell a cat what to do).
Drogon with his stuffed toy, Shai Hulud. Please don’t bring more toys for Drogon, he has enough. (Kibble or litter would be great, though.) In lieu of toys, what about making a donation to PAWS for their animal rescue missions in typhoon-stricken areas?
Bring books you’d like to exchange for other books, and get more books for free.
The members of our Camus Translation Group can pick up their books on Saturday.
Talk about books, cats and other things over
A treat from our lovely friends at
Thank you!
See you at the 7th floor, WSI Building, 1005 Metropolitan Avenue, Makati City, near the Makati Fire Station on Saturday from 4 to 6 pm. (Here’s the map).
The Writing Workshop participants will meet at the same venue at 2pm. (Bring hard copy of your first chapter.)
If you haven’t registered yet, drop us a line in Comments. Yes, you may bring a friend (who has no phobia of cats or nerds).

Ohhh shit, I don’t have a first chapter yet. Can I just dwell on it some more, see how everybody’s doing, and work on it on an “as we go along” pace? I am really exc… looking forward to the meet… with the cat first and then the nerds next. Muahness from Pasig Cirehhh!
I am planning to write a book of really awful essays. Clearly, I am playing it safe, haha.

Momelia: An outline, then. Even if you don’t follow it, we can get a clearer idea of what you plan to write.

joining (can i?). we will be carpooling, and will be on our way to an event so carpool mate/s, 2 at most, may decide to partake of the merienda fare, if not too much to ask.
