Inquirer Article: Grateful for the opportunity to close the Third BBF event and let's continue to support Savage Mind

This is a heartfelt article by Tita Neni Sta Romana Cruz for Inquirer! I’m truly grateful to Savage Mind:, the The Third Bikol Book Festival, Ateneo de Naga, and CentralBooks for the opportunity to close this meaningful event with a powerful statement: “Remember, if you have a story to tell, you have the power to share it with the world.” It’s heartbreaking to witness the aftermath of the typhoon and its impact on Savage Mind. But this story inspires a change, a force, a movement. The literary spirit is here to stay, and together, we will gather for the rebirth of Savage Mind and support Kristian Sendon Cordero. 🌱 Tugawe Cove Cafe is open starting today! Please take note of their new schedule as restoration work continues in their space. Let’s support and enjoy their offerings while they rebuild. #SavageMind #BikolBookFestival #LiteratureLivesOn #ResilienceThroughStories #CafeReopening #SupportLocal
