Update: Romeo Forbes Storywriting Competition 2008

Due to the number of the entries that were received (fifty), and the quality of the stories that made it to the finals (it has now been trimmed to the six), the decision has been taking a little longer than anticipated.

As with all previous contests, we have been amazed by the range and depth of originality that can be inspired by a single image. The finalists this year include a touching tale of a parent's search for magic, an imaginative environmental fable about the first jeepney, a dark and edgy story of a doll maker in Quiapo, a son's proud and truly Filipino tribute to a father, a funny and image-rich piece about an annual carabao's parade, and a tale centered on the last woman in the land.

We now hope to announce the final selection by the second or third week of May 2008. Thank you for everyone's patience. :-)
