The spreading of Anthologies and the issue of PNG Attitude and the Crocodile Prize is a bush fire in Simbu schools and the general public is aware of PNG literature.
The 2015 Anthology will be the complement of the Simbu Writers Association's effort in spreading the gospel about reading and writing.
We hope in 2016 Simbu will still lead in its contributions from the percentage of writers.

Many thanks for the commendation and the copies of the anthology to be sent to Divine Word University.
Amanda Yeou is our DWU Writers Club Member and a regular contributor to PNG Attitude and she has been instrumental in ensuring our reception of anthologies.
I am delighted that you are showing keen interest in our infant group and hope that more and more students join this club for serious reading and writing.
I will certainly write something for PNG Attitude in the coming weeks for wider readership and what we are doing at DWU in Madang.
Again thank you once again,
