DON’T BE SO HUMBLE,
YOU’RE NOT THAT GREAT!



Perplexions on Brief Exercises In Youthful Blasphemy


By Adam David


THE PREAMBLE!


THE IDEA!


THE GENRE!


THE FORM!


THE STRUCTURE!


THE CRAFT!


THE MESSAGE!


THE WRAP-UP!


This creative critical essay on (among other things) the state of Philippine NonFiction as promoted by Ms Jing Hidalgo, first presented on the 46th UP National Writers Workshop about a year ago, almost to the day, is posted here for context in preparation for EXQUISITE VENTRILOQUIST: Learning To Love Dean Alfar, which is a creative critical essay on the state of Philippine Speculative Fiction as promoted by Mr Dean Alfar, written as a series of annotated blurbs, at times petty, at times snide, but always ever smart.
