Writer’s Block Philippines will be hosting, “Appreciation: A Narrative Writing Workshop with Sarge Lacuesta” on May 19, 2019. The workshop will bring various art forms that we are all familiar with as writing prompts so participants can improve their writing craft and style in whatever narrative form they practice. It will be a mix of lecture, music appreciation, film viewing, and reflective writing.
Lacuesta is a multiple Palanca Award winning author who has written several books, including four short story collections, two non-fiction books, and a collection of graphic stories. He is Editor-at-Large at Esquire Magazine (Philippines) and Senior Editor at Panorama: the Journal of Intelligent Travel.
