Hey guys, I’m back. I hope you have read my previous post way back (a looong time ago…) but anyway let me remind you that this weblog is the online collaborative journal of some students in their first creative writing class. Here, all the revised editions of their creative works are published.
I haven’t updated this blog over the summer, though I checked it time to time. The students who are involved here are now in their third year (*cheers) and one of them said that this year would definitely be a tough year since they would be introduced to the concentration courses like poetry, fiction, playwriting, children’s literature, etc., for the first time. Since this blog is intended as a project of the CW101 course (Introduction to Creative Writing) which they had already taken in their second year, then my job as the site administrator is over. Oh, this really makes me sad. So are we dropping this?
No, not just yet. Now, I have to voice out my suggestion to them. As the official blogmaster of this site, my task is to post their works when they say so. The blog authors here are really good people (nah, I really mean it!) and we are all still deciding whether to post more of their works in the future. I really hope they’d do, because I don’t want to lose my job. *snickers. Besides, I don’t want to put this blog into some serious hiatus.
Also, Maddesk is also planning to expand the group. Whether for more contributors and editors, we are always open for any help. It’s always cool this way à (email: aprilfabula@gmail.com) or send the site administrator a message somewhere here.
I would also like to greet a happy birthday to one of the Maddesk blog authors – Henrietta Diana de Guzman. She’s turning 19 today June 6. She wrote Webbed Beauty, Beyond Her Rubrics Cube and Ginisang Gulay, Ang Pangaral ni Juan Tamad kay Ambisyosong Kasoy, A Helium Inside Papa’s Balloon, and Tainted Mind here in this blog. Happy Birthday!

Please visit the other CW101 blog from the same class, Purple Pad. The creative works posted in there were written by the students of creative writing of the same class. We’re separated in two groups, that’s why, so the people involved in the Purple Pad are the classmates/batchmates of the blog authors here in Maddesk.
The school term is fast approaching, I wish ya all the best on the first day of class. Nah, don’t skip class okay?
See ya!
