I was awake alone in our Tagaytay House while the rest were sleeping one night and I wanted to write a poem. This time the inspiration didn't hit me first, I needed to look for it. I couldn't find it. So I decided I had writer's block and decided that could be a topic and expounded on it. It became a testimony to writers as the kind of men that women REALLY go for :o)
I've tried submitting samples of my children's poetry to book publishers and I got almost the same answer, "It's entertaining reading, but poetry doesn't sell. Keep on writing" Ok, that gave me an idea I'd otherwise never have thought of.
