The Silliman National Writers Workshop was founded (in 1962) by the late Edilberto K. Tiempo and National Artist for Literature Edith L. Tiempo of Silliman University. It is an annual literary workshop held for three weeks every summer in Dumaguete City, and it is the longest running literary workshop in the Philippines. Practically all Filipino writers of any importance have joined the Silliman Writers Workshop at one time or another, either as fellows, lecturers, or panelists. Being a pioneer, the Silliman Writers Workshop occupies a premier position in the history of creative writing in the Philippines. Due to decreases in budgetary allocations, the Silliman National Writers Workshop (for some time) disassociated itself from Silliman University, and started to get its funding from the National Commission of Culture and Arts (NCCA). Its name was changed to the Dumaguete National Writers Workshop. In 2008, however, the organization of the workshop returned to Silliman University's English Department, with additional support from the NCCA, as well as local businesses from Dumaguete and other literature and art enthusiasts. Eventually, the workshop was rechristened with the name ''Silliman University National Writers Workshop''.〔("49th Silliman University National Writers Workshop" ). Silliman University.

Retrieved 2010-05-17.〕 ==Fellowship== A minimum of twelve fellowships are open every summer for young writers, all over the country. The first screening panel, composed of members of the Creative Writing Foundation, selects the writing fellows for the summer based on the manuscripts submitted by the applicants. These selected manuscripts are forwarded to the Director of the Workshop, National Artist for Literature Edith L. Tiempo, who does the final screening and formally approves the final lineup of writing fellows. The writing fellowship covers board and lodging for the full 22 days of the duration of the entire workshop. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Silliman National Writers Workshop」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
