About
My name is Nancy Cudis Ucag. I live in Cebu, a beautiful tropical island that is rich in culture and heritage just like the rest of the 7,600+ islands of the Philippines.
I have been blogging since 2008 on various platforms. I started out of curiosity and wrote about my personal experiences. My blogging interests, in my quest to improve myself, also expanded to include reading, writing, gardening, and social issues.
Here, where I will permanently stay, I will share with you my strong interest in these broad areas with the hope that you will also, at your own time and pace, actively involve yourself in the magical and fulfilling experience of writing, reading, gardening, and outreach.
One’s interests can change over time. In the same way, there may be changes in my blog to reflect my current interests. These are my blog advocacies:
Philippine literature - #readPhilippines
Self-care - My Life in Seven Days
Interviews - #AWOLconfab
I was a news reporter for SunStar Cebu, a local English daily, and a communication specialist for Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc., a non-government organization serving the Visayas and Mindanao.
I am now a business owner, writer, and editor at The Memoriter that will turn eight years old in February 2022. I write, edit, research, blog, manage social media accounts, and design materials for individuals, companies, small business, startups, business groups, and NGOs.
If you have a project that needs help, you may want to consider me and what I can do for you. My email address is writernancycudis@gmail.com.
On a part-time basis, I teach communication courses at St. Theresa’s College-Cebu as I strive to complete my postgraduate thesis. I also volunteer through conducting writing workshops for young students and participating in the activities of the civic organizations I belong to.
I am a fortunate and grateful person to have been recognized the following:
2020 Best Website Article - External Writer Category in the NNC Webby Awards
2018 Best Investigative Report - Blog Category in the Mega Cebu Investigative Report competition
2014 Cebu Bloggers Society Award of Distinction and Blogger of the Year
