Manila Report
Everything about this trip was a first for me - first trip to the Philippines, first time using Power Point, and first time running a Workshop. Fortunately the smooth professionalism of SCBWI Philasia and the British Council more than compensated for my inexperience.
The morning after my arrival I met organizers Beaulah Taguiwalo and Nikki Torres for breakfast at the Malayan Hotel, together with Beaulah's sons Mark and Homer. Then we drove to the British Council to check through the details of my presentation, where the staff, headed by Myrha Pranga, were extremely helpful and generous.
