dagyangpulong conquers Bigkas-Binalaybay 2007; Call for Help

Laurence Bernabe won the writing portion of the College Level Bigkas-Binalaybay. As a result we got ourselves a nice meal from Alan's Talabahan at Oton, a couple of prancing Red Horses, and a couple of cool SanMig Lights.

Dagyangpulong is coming up with an anthology later this year. Since publishing opportunities for a small group like ours is next to nil, we decided to go guerilla press, which basically means publishing our works in riosographed paper. The most important thing for us is to be read and to help make our fellow Ilonggos aware that literature is alive in the land which bore the Magdalena Jalandoni's, the Stephen Javellana's, the Graciano Lppez-Jaena's... If somehow you want to contribute to this small endeavour, you may email us at rcpaccial(at)yahoo.com or make us your friend at friendster.

this is the official dagyangpulong logo. the characters in the bottom is the modified baybayin script for dagyangpulong. The ballpen in the logo tells a lot about the group, composed of young people, writing in and for their generation. The official color is gold, as a testimony to our roots from the Fray Luis de Leon Creative Writing Workshop.
