Welcome message from Nick Carbo . . . (1 November 1997)

Here we are. This is a momentous occasion. Most of us Filipino writers live not only in the Philippines but are spread out all over the US and the world. This electronic medium, however, has afforded us an opportunity to unite in cyberspace to present a common front in unity and diversity. This is a chance to introduce ourselves to each other, to relay news, important literary events, to inform each other of our literary undertakings, to put Filipino, Filipino American (and Filipino whatever) literature on the American map and the world's stage. Please join us.

To join . . .
