Oh Von - that's terrible that she took your words like that. I'm used to having my blog ripped off in spam blogs but in a print book? Wow.
I hope she does right by you.

This is terrible. With so much plagiarism from the Internet going on, I'm glad you're taking a stand.
Nature of the net makes you think you can get away with it?
Posted about it too at http://gokitomo.com/2007/08/25/

People are still unaware of the CCL. Sir can I write something about this in one of my article? I'm currently a contributor in a daily broadsheet. Thanks.
she mentioned my name. i don't even know her. too bad, mr. pagsi might think im an instrument in her plagiarism.
thanks, everyone, for all the support. rest assured that this is only the beginning =)
everyone who has written about this will be properly named and acknowledged (all plagiarists, take note!) in my update on this matter.
qiqo: go ahead. just make sure you spell my name correctly =)
ronald: don't worry, i will explain to mr. pagsi that she was the victim of her own laziness (i.e., copy-and-paste "scholarship").
Terrible! Blogosphere unite!
That totally sucks, man. Nakakahiya sya.
Are you from Bicol? I have an orgmate with the same surname. hehe
Dear Von Totanes,
I read your open letter few days ago. I was terribly surprised. U know, so many students are contributing their researched works to me re: speeches, poems, essays. When I received speeches of Marcos, Magsaysay, Quezon, etc. I happily included them in my Talumpati book. I even said, "Naku, mabubuhay uli ang pangalan nila sa book ko." In the speech of Onofre Pagsanhan, I saw the names of Cabunagan and Alvarez. I tried to contact them by calling all the same family names in the directory but no one seems to know them so I decided to retain their names the way they were written. Von, that was my greatest mistake! I became careless in including those speeches. Buong akala ko talaga mga talumpati yun nina Marcos in Tagalog. Dami na rin kasi akong speeches nila in English. Yung mga nag contribute hindi nila inilagay ang source, wala rin ang name mo. Von, I am terribly sorry for causing you mental agony thinking that I stole your work. I'm willing to make amends with you and offer you some options, so at least I can compensate you in some way. God knows, Von, I never meant to offend you or grab credit for your work. It was an honest mistake, believe me. I am apologizing for causing you emotional disturbance. Hindi ko agad nasagot ang open letter mo kasi nagluluksa pa ako. Kamamatay lang ng mister ko nung August. Kahapon lang ang 40 Days niya. Sana Von, you'll contact me so we can talk. This is my mobile phone # 09185166433. Am still in Cebu now. Next week I will be in Manila. This is my Mnla landline 7326559. May God enlighten our minds and show us the right path to settle everything for our mutual benefit. God bless.

P.S.
To my reading fans,
I'm sorry for the mistake I committed. Sa more than 100 books na naisulat ko in 24 years, this is the very first time na nakasakit ako ng damdamin ng kapwa ko manunulat. Sana'y mapatawad ninyo ako.
Cristina Santos Canonigo
So I do hope this gets settled favorably for both parties now that Von's open letter now gets a humble reply. God bless you both!
von,
be careful of that woman cs canonigo?
she is A USER. a very good in acting, DON'T easily believe what she is saying. be careful.
Nobody's perfect in this world. Now that CS Canonigo has shown remorse and pleaded apology for her unintended mistake who are we to continue throwing stones?

susan: would you care to go into more detail? or leave your email. no one will see it except me.
ismael: i'm sure you're speaking of stones metaphorically, but information is always good to have. whether or not the information is reliable is up to the recipient.
everyone: i've actually already met with cs canonigo and have been remiss in updating all of you. i hope to do this soon.
