View guest profiles . 1PM - 2:00 PM - Ang Bagong Libro (Book Design and Illustration) Some of the best and most well-known illustrators and book designers in the industry willl speak about the craft of illustrating books and the bookishness of the book as a physical object and/or as a work of art. View our guest list . 2:15 PM - 3:15 PM - Ang Bagong Panitikan (New and Emergent Literatures) The title of the panel is perhaps a misnomer since the panelists will be speaking about genres of Philippine literature (or the literary arts) which have been existing for quite a long time. The forum is not a re-introduction, however, but a point for speculation about current and future trends and possibilities inherent in old, dormant or emerging literary genres. View guest profiles . 3:30 PM - 4:30 PM - Ang Bagong Manunulat (The New Writer) This panel features some of the best young writers writing today: Alvin Yapan, Katrina Tuvera, Conchitina Cruz, Paolo Manalo and Maria Isabel Garcia.

This (miscellaneous) panel will talk about all of the above.
