 iters\, Etc is our literary platform: a space where the written word gets 
 primacy\, where written ideas and their practitioners can interact with ea
 ch other and the general public\, coming together to ask pertinent questio

 societies? How do writers see their responsibilities vis-à-vis the public
  and\, turning that over\, how do we see writers? How has the written word
  adapted to its place among the growing pantheon of varied and addictive f
 orms of cultural transmission? The aim is to encourage a discovery\, unenc
