There are plenty of new opportunities for writers this week! Submissions for the 2021 Fogarty Literary Award are now open for WA authors aged between 18-35 who have an unpublished manuscript to submit. The winner will receive $20,000 and a publishing contract with Fremantle Press for a work of fiction, narrative non-fiction or young adult fiction.
Fremantle Press publisher Georgia Richter, who will judge the award alongside children’s publisher Cate Sutherland and editor Armelle Davies, said she was looking for a writer with a fresh voice and a manuscript that told a great story.
