Some new exciting things are happening in 2021 two of which are the development of the Kiwi young writers and the international young writers into separate young writer ministries from Press Service International.
There is now a clear recognition that the founder of the young writer ministry - Dr Mark Tronson - who turns 69 in 6 days requires some cooperative heavy lifting by the Kiwis and internationals.
The Kiwis became part of the Australian young writers in 2012 whereas there was an internationals week by 2013.
Now, in 2021 both these groups will become separate. They will have each been ‘Standing Alone’ for three years which means they have been functioning alone in their operations.

Nothing of this changes.
There are two things where all three young writer ministries have voluntarily come together
The first relates to the daily list of article ‘Titles’ sent to Christian Today for publishing – this involves all three groups.
The second relates to the annual awards - panellists, connect people, statisticians - and presentations.
Web sites
Both the Kiwis and Internationals have established ‘archive’ sites for their respective young writers.
