I have a confession to make: I'm not a big Harry Potter fan. Oh, I read and enjoyed all the books (maybe except for Book 5), and watched all the movies (still think the 3rd was the best), but every time the story would try to present itself as being a worldwide magical conflict, I'd have to battle an urge to sigh. I just didn't see a lot of non-Western magical types/motifs represented in the Harry Potter world. As for specifically Philippine magic, yeah... no. While that's hardly surprising, that kind of thing still keeps me from truly immersing myself in that world, even if I found aspects of it very inviting, because it felt like a world that has no place for people from my neck of the woods. And that's a shame, because there's a rich diversity of magical practices in the Philippines. So I've always thought about what a Philippine magical school might be like, one which used and taught magic in a way that magic has appeared in our culture, our old stories and urban legends. When I was asked to contribute to the first issue of LONTAR (https://lontarjournal.com/), I realized I didn't want to submit a story. What I wanted to do was imagine that Philippine school of magic, and in providing a list of courses that are taught within its hypothetical halls, give some insight into our own traditions of magic. It was a... much more daunting task than I'd originally anticipated, and in no way does the list I created even scratch the surface of the myriad magical traditions, ancient and modern, found in these islands. But it's a start. (Cover image is tangentially related, an inforgraphic primer on Philippine sorcery by Mervin Malonzo and myself for Kwentillion.)

A critique hub where critics really mean business.

This is THE critique lounge. TruthSlappers don't sugarcoat reviews. We pour chili on wounds. We will SLAP YOU, NOT BY HANDS but with WORDS of TRUTH.

Saan galing ang mga kuwento? Paano pumili ng pamagat? Anu-ano ang mga story elements? Gaano kalaki ang plot? Ilan ang dapat na tauhan sa kuwento? Bakit may setting? Aling point of view ang dapat na gamitin sa pagsulat? Kailan dapat maglagay ng Prologue o ng Epilogue? Saan ginagamit ang theme? Ano ang writing style? Bakit may ending? Paano ba ang magsulat? Hindi nauubos ang mga malilikot na kuwento, katulad ng hindi maubos na mga tanong tungkol sa pagsulat. Ang librong ito ay sumasagot sa mga tanong ng isang baguhang manunulat at nagpapaalala naman sa matagal nang mangingibig ng sining ng pagsulat.

We all know exactly what we should be doing, in order to make it big on Wattpad... but what about the stuff we're not supposed to do?
