Pinoy Book Project

Do you want to write a book, together with about a zillion others?

Our goal: To compile zany, useful, good stuff on Filipino culture, art, and literature.

Our first ideas: book title:    Pinoy Stuff (alternative suggestions are welcome!) chapters:  -  opening hit on the consciousness - any thoughts?                 -  FAQs - e.g. who is Epifanio de los Santos? (Pinoy trivia)                 -  The state of Philippine history (calling on Ambeth Ocampo?)                 -  The Filipino artist hall of fame (describing the greatests)                 -  Search for roots - contributions from those who looked for lost                       family or loved ones (e.g. Charlie's story)                 -  Terms of engagement (Love, Pinoy style)                 -  Money matters (how Filipinos handle such things)                                -  Manias and Bubbles on the PSE (stories on how to invest)                 -  Philippine charities (where to give, and why)                 -  Classics - reading list for the literate Pinoy                 -  The color of skin (how we look at race)                 -  Hanep (glossary of cool Pinoy terms of the last 20 yrs.) Appendix:  - Contributors' e-mail addresses           latest update: 3-5-2003                     and related sites
