Boholano writers

There are hundreds of published Boholano writers (or Bol-anon writers) from the time Boholano literature emerged since the time of Boholano priestess Karyapa before the arrival of the Spaniards. The following list of Boholano writers is not extensive nor comprehensive enough to be considered a directory.

Several groups were formed like Bahandi Writers of Loon, Bohol, Kaliwat ni Karyapa formed on September 8, 2000 and Society of Active Boholano Artists and Writers.

Also named in the list are the late president of the Republic of the Philippines Carlos P. Garcia who wrote Visayan poems, Palanca awardees Marjorie Evasco, Noel P. Tuazon, and Clovis Nazareno and the Boholano dean of journalism the late Zoilo Dejaresco.
