Fiesta Señor at Christmas

- The Ear -
December 1, 2011 | 12:00am

FIESTA SEÑOR IN DECEMBER. There are some families who celebrate Fiesta Señor at the same time they celebrate Christmas. “It’s not a queer practice,” says a lay minister in a parish in the city, “because our celebration of Christmas is principally in honor of the Child Jesus.”

NOVENA. An Ear source says there are some devotees who pray the Sto. Niño novena nine days going into December 24. And, the Ear learned, there are some Sto. Niño devotees in Labagon who sing the Sto. Niño devotional song “Bato Balani sa Gugma” before doing their media noche.

Fame, fortune and the Filipino writer

Creative writers don’t earn much in this country, unless they lend their talents to someone else, for far less literary reasons than writing a novel or a collection of poems.
