DREAMLOVERS

Yes, writing workshop ang pupuntahan niyo. But
this will be a double event, double celebration! Dahil book launch din ito ng kauna-unahang
libro ng Jahric Lago Presents (JLP), a self-funded, self-publishing project
that gives an opportunity to writers in getting their works out there, to their
readers.
Ang Dreamlovers
ay isang libro kung saan nakapaloob ang mga napakagandang kuwento tungkol
sa tunay na pag-ibig from young and aspiring writers na nanalo sa writing
contest. Magaling ang pagkakasulat, maganda ang mga kuwento, nakakakilig,
nakakaasar, nakakainis at talagang makaka-relate ka. Mapa-bata, mapa-matanda,
bitter ka man sa love, o hopeless romantic, dahil sa Dreamlovers, may kuwento para sa lahat, may kuwento dito para sa
‘yo.

J.CO
TREATS!
We clearly state na FREE workshop ang WNGF. But
since gaganapin ito sa J.Co Greenhills Promenade and we’re kind of renting the
place, everyone will be paying Php 100 at the registration. But that comes with
J.Co’s Rise & Shine Breakfast Promo kung saan meron ka ng J.Club Sandwich
with choices of Cheezy Rich, Sausage or Salami. Plus, a cup of iced coffee or
iced lemon tea. Who doesn’t want a J.Co treat, right? Saka sino bang gustong
mag-aral ng gutom? No one. In short and to be brutally honest, ‘yung babayaran
niyong Php 100 ay kakainin niyo rin at hindi mapupunta sa kahit sinong bulsa ng
organizers. Mind you, self-funded ang WNGF Writing Workshop. Saka si Duterte na
ang Presidente ng Pilipinas, bawal ang kurap! Just saying.
SUPER
PRIZES!
Alam kung mag-e-enjoy kayo sa WNGF workshop na
‘to kasi marami kayong matututunan pati na rin makikilalang mga bagong
kaibigan. Pero maliban rito, mag-e-enjoy rin kayo sa mga hinanda naming iba’t
ibang Games & Activities kung saan puwede kayong manalo ng books from
international writers at iba pa. Mga simpleng writing exercises at trivias lang
naman ang sasagutin niyo para manalo ng house and lot… sa paso! Chos! Haha!
Exciting, right? Natuto ka na, nanalo ka pa.
GET
KNOWLEDGE AND A CERT!
Everyone who will be
joining the WNGF workshop will not just take home new knowledge about writing,
editing and self-publishing, great prizes from games, and newfound friendship
but also a certification that can attest that you are finally on your journey in
becoming an efficient writer. Kaya kita kits tayong lahat sa Write Near, Go Far
Writing Workshop on May 31, 2016, 9:00am-3:00pm at J.Co Greenhills Promenade.
See you there! Be there and be better!
