CEBU’S CREATIVE WRITERS

“Not being able to speak more Cebuano than necessary to take public transportation, I cannot tell if it is the language that spells the difference. I can tell however that it must be the place because if Manila has had its fair share of writer, the per capita output of creative writing in Cebu is amazing. There is clearly something, whether it is something palpable as the language or as intangible as feeling in the air, that invigorates the writing sense... The writers in this book have weaved words of wonders, turning reality into literature and memories into dreams.”
