Pinoy Poets on Poetry collects insights by young and emerging Filipino poets on anything (and everything) poetry.

How much time do you spend writing (creative/literary) each day?

Nakakahiya mang aminin pero wala talaga akong tamang disiplina sa pagsusulat. Walang takdang oras at wala ring takdang haba. Ang talagang ginagawa ko lang lagi, ako ay may nakahandang maliit na notebook. Anytime na may idea, linya, o kung anuman ang dumaan sa isip ko o eksenang namataan ko, isinusulat ko kaagad. At kapag nasa tamang huwisyo na ako sa pagsusulat, hindi ko binibitawan hanggang hindi nabubuo.

30 minutes?

                    - Grace Perdiguerra

It isn't everyday that I write but when I do, it would last for three hours.

                    - Paolo Cristobal

I am so involved in the writing process for at least eight hours per day. But that's not for poetry. It's for work and school.

                    - Kathline Tolosa

Iba-iba, pero bago matulog nagsusulat ako ng kahit ano, tula man o weird na kung ano. Hanggang sa makatulog na yun. So mga isang oras siguro average.

                   - Nanoy Rafael

Everyday buong day ha ha!

                  - Mark Angeles

Iba-iba e. Pero I try to find time kahit maka-one line/sentence lang, kahit pangit.

                  - Raymond John de Borja

Hindi regular e. Pero pag nagsusulat talaga ako tapos uupuan ko, mga magdamag.

                  - Christa de la Cruz

I don't get to do that regularly. Isinisingit ko lang sa studies at work.
