and on the internet since 1995. The

distribution of creative work by Native writers, and to raise public awareness

research, storytelling, and performance.”-Site. |
| Storytellers Native American Authors Online |
- "This site was conceived with a very particular aim: to make the writing of
modern Native American authors, particularly the poets, both more visible and
more widely available. Toward that end, the sites residing on this server have
been made with the collaboration of the authors. The authors see the sites
before they are made public, edit these pages, contribute additional material,
and select, or at least help to select, their work which is made available to be
read online. They are able to control their own image to a greater degree than
they are able to in book cover and other advertising material, even better than
they are sometimes able to in published interviews. They also maintain the
copyright to all of their own material."--Site.
