Conference convenor
| We are proud to present Young
Voices: The 2004 South African Online Writers' Conference - the first ever
writers' conference for South African writers 35 years and younger. The
venue: the virtual world of your computer screen. And everyone is invited
to participate.
LitNet will be hosting the voices of local writers, publishers, editors
and booksellers - young South Africans giving their honest impressions
on South African life, and on writing, publishing and reading in this
country. It is a rare opportunity to hear so many different voices speak
at once, and about the same topics: My Memory, My Place, My Generation,
My Body and My Voice.
So keep your eyes zoomed in on LitNet from Monday (October 4th onwards),
to read the first of nearly 50 online presentations running over a period
of two months. And be prepared to voice your own opinion - what are these
young voices saying, and what is being left unsaid?
 Young Voices promises to
be a barometer of South African society - what does the mindmap of younger
generations of writers look like, and where are they heading?
