My hapless students have these lines coming out of their ears, and faithful Penman readers should have memorized these by now, but here, in summary, is what I’ve been telling young writers every chance I get all these years I’ve been teaching writing. For the full month, see my book The Knowing Is in the Writing: Notes on the Practice of Fiction (UP Press, 2006).

Sometime last year, an anti-smoking group invited me to take part in an orientation program of sorts for media persons whom they were presumably interested in winning over to their campaign.

It’s easy to concede to that dictum, but I never realized its full significance until I got hold of The Things They Carried by Tim O’Brien. It’s a collection of stories culled from the author’s experiences as a foot soldier during the Vietnam War, beautifully constituted into a novel.

If the situation were reversed, I’m sure Franz would have done the same. They were equals.

Together with Jose Garcia Villa, they were the titans of 20th century Philippine literature in English. They wrote–they lived, they were–like no other, writers non pareil; nobody else even came close.

It was sad news, very sad news, but something his family and friends had been expecting to come sooner than later, given the rapid deterioration of Franz’s condition.
