THE WRITERS' CONFERENCE
Sir,-In his comment on my letter and Mr Duggan’s (N.Z. Listener, October 16), Mr Schroder again denies feeling that hostiljgy towards writers which was the domMant impression of his attitude left on some who heard his talk at the Writers’ Conference. Let him
then show that no such hostility exists, not in words now, but in action. What he wrote and said in the past is past; it is what he does in future that is of interest. I for one shall watch hopefully for evidence that the NZBS deais ‘with writers in as fair a way as it does, say, with musicians. The proposed workshop which Mr Duggan refers to sounds like a step in the right direction.
