Readercon Filipino Friday: Week #5

(Go HERE for details & participants of this meme)

This week's question:
What do you hope will happen in the Filipino ReaderCon? What are you expecting from the event?

My answer:
I am bummed that I won't be able to make it to this event.  I would have expected to be enlightened and befriend/network with fellow readers.  I would have hoped that as an outcome of this event, a program that rally/spread the joy of reading would be established ...in individual, community, and national levels.  For example, individually we can lend out books to friends and acquaintances or encourage the love of reading through your blog.  In community, we can do a book drive, set up a book club, or develop a fund for the building of a local library.  And nationally, we can vote into/sustain politicians that value reading and writing.  These are few general examples.  I would expect that as a group we would collaborate thoughts and ideas and come up with something fabulous!  :)

Have a great conference my dear friends.  Please let me know how I can help from way way over here.  ;)

  1. We're in the same 'boat' so to speak. Although I could see that you are in the States, hehe. I am now based in Singapore and yes, we can only provide support virtually. Glad to run into you through the Filipino Book Bloggers site :)
