I am mining the blog for possible book materials, upon suggestion of a quondam confrere at the old university.
The University of Santo Tomas Publishing House is inviting writer-alumni to contribute to the publication of 400 books to complete the project in commemoration of the university's 400th anniversary in the Philippines. The Dominican-run univerity is one of the oldest universities in the world.
Dr. Cristina Pantoja-Hidalgo, herself an alumna and a notable Philippine writer, has taken over the project as the present Director of the UST Publishing House. Dr. Hidalgo, a retired professor emeritus of the University of the Philippines, returns to her Alma Mater to complete the 400 Books for 400 Years Project.
This author's A Theory of Echoes (A Selection of Poems) was published in Febrary 2009 as part of the project started by then Publishing House Director Jack Wigley.
Taking stock, I will be back before long. I think.
Dear Sir Albert

I understand, you would be busy, Sir
I would wait gazing at that picture while you are away
I know you will come back
Good luck to your work (with Ma'am Hidalgo)
I will miss you so much
Maybe I would play on the pieces you left me, for ???
Till you're back
I will read the older posts of your blogs and learn more ???

Then a poem for you --
And the inspiration you always give me
Have fun in your new endeavors
