Sources for Women's literature in ASEAN
edit- This is a discussion forked from WT:WPWIR
Do we have any article about Women's literature in ASEAN or South east Asia. If not then I will support a draft. I would be interested in writing about "ASEAN Literary Festival". Will appreciate help in finding sources. Bookku (talk) 12:59, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- Bookku: That's an excellent idea. We don't have any general articles but we have List of Filipino women writers, List of Indonesian women writers and List of Malaysian women writers and we also have categories for Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. There are articles on the literature of most of these countries which provide interesting background, sometimes mentioning prominent women writers: Burmese literature, Cambodian literature, Indonesian literature, Philippine_literature, Singaporean literature, Thai literature and Vietnamese literature. Most of them would however benefit from better coverage of women writers. The first 20 or so names on the Goodreads list of South Asian Fiction by Women may deserve special attention. As I see you are interested in festivals, you might also like to look at Singapore Writers Festival.
- Once you make a start on this, I would be happy to help you along.--Ipigott (talk) 10:10, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

- It seems Singapore Writers Festival already exists but awaits updates since long. We do have Category:Literary festivals in Asia by country noting for my own record. Bookku (talk) 15:36, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
