The NSW Writers' Centre welcomes three visiting Indonesian writers,
RICHARD OH (see editorial Newswrite November 2005) and DEWI LESTARI.
Richard, Ketut and Dewi will read from their work and will be talking
about the state of creative writing in Indonesia.

RICHARD OH is the founder and owner of a chain of book stores called QB
World in Jakarta and several cities in Java.  He has written three
novels: Pathfinders of Love (1999), Heart of the Night in (2000) and The
Rainmaker's Daughter (2004).  Richard also established a small
publishing company, Metafor, in 2001, specialising in literary and
cultural works, translating also a series of Indonesian legendary
writers.  The Khatulistiwa Literary Award for novels, short stories and
poetry is a testimony of Oh's dedication to Indonesian arts and
literature.  Initiated by Richard and QB World, it is a non-profit
program that offers Indonesian artists recognition for their
achievement.

DEWI LESTARI SIMANGUNSONG is the author of the best-selling and largely
self-published Supernova novel series. She is also a singer with vocal
trio RSD.

KETUT YULIARSA is a writer, actor and musician. His poems and prose have
been published in The Bali Post and Sinar Harapan, as well as in
publications such as Vern Cork's The Morning After and Jean Couteau's
compilation of essays Bali Today 2005. Ketut has published two
collections of poetry Night Voice/Suara Malam published in 1996 and,
most recently, Jatuh Bisu/Falling In Silence published in 2006.
