Ahhhhhhhhhh. I'm excited.

But where are all the women!

[Hawdian]

Evol,

There are many girls taking part in the event. I would say they make the majority. They are just camera shy. Many leading authors are girls including Hamda Mohamed Hussein Egal. The girls also make up the majority of the organizers.


Somaliland author Hamda with Sahra Halgan.

Wonderful, thank you. I felt women would be behind this, but since I didn't see them in the pictures (saw majority men), I worried lol Appreciated.
