    y separately published work icon Ngapartji's Virtual Writers in Residence Adelaide : SA Writers , 1997 Z1935132 1997 website Graeme Beaton describes the three main reasons for the project :

    • Looking to produce writing that 'works' on the Net - that attracts an audience.
    • Establish principles for payment of high quality written work in the multimedia context (role for guest editors?).
    • To begin to adequately address intellectual property and copyright issues on the Net.

    The idea of a virtual writer in residence pilot project was canvassed by the Australia Council in 1996. Major aims were to introduce writers to the new media & develop literary audiences - capitalising on the global nature of online information.

    The project was kicked off by the Ngapartji Multimedia Centre last year [1997] with: internet training for regional-based writers. Visits to Port Pirie, Whyalla, Port Augusta, Woomera, Roxby Downs and Coober Pedy introduced 46 writers, 16 school teachers and over a 100 school children to the potential for writing on the internet.
