JOEL PABLO SALUD

JOEL PABLO SALUD began his career in writing as a journalist of close to three decades.

 

He has written a broad range of socio-political pieces on current events and issues, and as a member of the Manila Critics Circle an extensive folio of literary reviews for various national publications in the Philippines. 

 

His sorties into fiction are the result of rare hours he steals outside the rough and tumble world of assaying politics. 

 

He has judged in the National Book Development Board-Manila Critics Circle (NBDB-MCC) National Book Awards and the prestigious Don Carlos Palanca Memorial Awards for Literature. 

 

He is a member of the Unyon ng mga Manunulat sa Pilipinas (UMPIL), Philippine Center for International PEN and the Manila Critics Circle.

 

He now saddles his pen as the editor-in-chief of the Philippines Graphic magazine, the country's leading newsweekly and literary publication.
