Abstract
About the Author Ramon C. Sunico is a bilingual writer, book designer, book project manager, editor and teacher. In Augsburg, Germany, he designed, printed, and bound his first book of poetry, The Secret of Graphite: Poems in Two Tongues (1989), the first book to do away with the artificial segregation of English from Filipino poems. As manager of Cacho Publishing House, he was the first to publish a line of picture books with parallel, bilingual texts, now common practice among publishers. Included in the line was Two Friends, One World/ Mata at Mangga, both winners of the first children’s story competition of the Carlos Palanca Memorial Awards. He was similarly the first to moderate a locally-based listserv (the precursor of e-groups) on Philippine arts and letters, rp-books. Similarly themed listservs were based in the US and Australia. He also belonged to the pioneering group that used early desktop computers to design Philippine literary titles during the flowering of local book publishing after the ouster of Marcos.
