Now, as a lot of you know and a lot of you have no idea of, I've had my hand in writing for quite some time now. Over the years my words have taken many forms. Despite my lack of brevity (as this post most likely attest) I've never quite managed to write a great novel or a 3hr length screenplay, I've realised over the years that my writing style is much more suited to shorter pieces. That's not to say that a novel or a screenplay that would make 'Titanic' feel like an ad break isn't a possibility, for now though I wouldn't be waiting with bated breath for it. To be honest, I wouldn't be waiting with bated breath even if I was on the final chapter/scene.
Anyway, my point - and I do have one, is that I am very very proud to announce the launch of a website that I am very honoured to be a part of. This site is the brainchild of one of my best friends, and I am grateful that she thinks enough of me that she would want me to contribute to the site. I just hope that I can do a good enough job. At the moment there's not a lot on there but we're hoping to update the site every other week, possibly more depending on what's happening with us at the time. There'll be new articles on there and also hopefully lots of other good stuff that'll make people want to come back and keep clicking on the site.
As the 'About' section states, the main focus is the Philippines and Filipinos so I'm sure a lot of you are wondering why you would have any interest in it. It's true that a lot of the articles on there will be about the Philippines and events in the Filipino community. However, I hope that we are successful in writing articles that, although they have a Pinoy slant on them, will hold relevance to everyone, no matter where you're from.
We all share common experiences and I hope that the perspectives provided will show you another way of looking at things. At the very least you can read the articles and if you have none or little knowledge of Filipino culture you can perhaps read things and think, 'Oh so that explains why Gem's like that.' Feel free to substitute my name with any other Filipino person's name that you may know, lol. Perhaps maybe not just a Filipino person's name, like I said, we all share common expriences. you'd be surprised how similar our cultures are.
Well, without further ado please take a moment to visit the site, not only that - please keep visiting. Like I said, there may not be much there yet but there will be. Give us a chance and hopefully we'll be able to create a place you'll want to keep coming back to.
