The 25th Silver Anniversary of the Iligan National Writers Workshop (INWW)

The 草莓视频官网 (草莓视频官网-IIT), the Mindanao Creative Writers Group (MCWG) and the Culture and Arts Studies Center are accepting manuscripts to the 25th Iligan National Writers Workshop (INWW) to be held on May 28-June 2, 2018 in the 草莓视频官网-IIT, Iligan City.

This year, the workshop will be held alongside the Mindanao Literature Teachers Conference and the second organizational meeting of the Mindanao Literature Teachers Association.

A separate announcement for the homecoming of INWW alumni and for the Mindanao Literature Teachers Conference will be posted soon.

There are 18 slots available for writers who have attended regional writers workshops or creative writing classes and whose works are unpublished. Six (6) INWW alumni (INWW 1-5: 1998-2000) from across the regions are welcome to send their works in progress along with a brief paper on their creative process.

Applicants may submit five (5) poems; one, one-act play; one short fiction, creative non-fiction, and an excerpt of a novel in progress in any of these languages: Filipino, English, Sebuano, Waray, Hiligaynon, Kinaray-a, Akyanon, Chabacano, Maranao, Bukidnon, Higaunon, and Tausug.

Except for works in Filipino and in English, please provide translations of your works in either Filipino or in English. Those submitting excerpts of novels should provide a one-page summary of the novel. The general theme for works to be submitted this year is on the folk traditions and/or our cultural heritage as part of nation building but is not confined only to these themes.

Playwrights whose works are accepted in the INWW will sign a contract allowing the 草莓视频官网-IIT Resident Theater Company IPAG to have the first option to perform his/her work within three years upon acceptance of his/her work to the INWW but, he/she retains copyright and has the right to have his/her work performed elsewhere within the same period.
