Three Writing Calls
From my email inbox:
Adarna House Call For Manuscripts - Adarna House is looking for storybook manuscripts bearing one or more of the following themes: first day of school, honesty, health, Chinese-Filipinos, classroom situations, death, music, children with working parents, rhyming / repetitive style of writing, legends, fathers, grandfathers, citizenship values, peace and tolerance, diligence (sipag), personal hygiene, sportsmanship, value of reading. Submissions may be in Filipino or English. Call 3723548 local 122 for the submission guidelines.
From Celdran Tours - LIVE THE ISLAND LIFE!
So, here's the Philippines' answer to the best job in the world (assuming HIGH pay is not a factor).
The folks over at CANVAS/Looking for Juan are seeking a willing soul who can help document the building of the Philippines' Pacific Rim Friendship Park in the gorgeous island of Palawan. This project, best described as "Survivor-Meets- Habitat-for- Humanity" , hopes to bring together architecture/ art students from around the world who, together with counterpart Filipino students, will design and build a Friendship Park under the artistic supervision of leading artists, architects and urban planners - in only 30 days. Puerto Princesa City is providing the land. You can view the spectacular site they are allocating here:
Students from the US, Russia, Mexico, Japan, China and Korea will start arriving on May 2 and 3. We'll give them a tour of Manila on May 4. Then on May 5, they all fly off to Palawan to build the park. If all goes well, we will launch the park on May 30.
So... if YOU are that someone who can go with the group for the entire period from may 2-31 to take photos (or better, photos and videos), document, and blog at least once every day in May, then hit them up. You will also of course be expected to help with the building of the design - but your main responsibility is the documentation, photography/ videography and blogging. You can interview the participants, talk about anything interesting during the whole process. Lots of room for creativity, meeting new people, and learning about new cultures.
Ah, and of course, the perks: CANVAS will cover your plane fare from Manila to Puerto Princesa and back, hotel stay, board and lodging for the entire month, and a MINIMAL stipend (at least P10,000.00, maybe a bit more if additional funds can be secured). What is practically guaranteed is that you will make new and lasting friendships (maybe more - who knows?), and definitely have a unique entry in your CV once this is over.
If you know anyone who might be interested in this adventure of a lifetime, please have them email Gigo Alampay ASAP at gigo(at)canvas(dot)ph.
