To date, four (4) anthologies of award-winning poetry, short fiction and one-act plays have been

Award winning works from 1950-1970. It was then followed by three separate anthologies of one-act
plays, short stories, and poetry that won in the 1980s, with Filipino volumes issued in 1990 and English
