1st prize Short Fiction $1000 & 1st prize Poetry $500
The 2020 Heroines Women’s Writing Prize & Anthology is now open for submissions of short fiction and poetry. The Heroines Anthology is a collection of stories of women written by women. Works with a particular focus on telling lost women’s history, untold stories, and reimagined myths, fairy tales, folklore or legends, or speculative fiction, are particularly encouraged.
Guidelines:
-
We only accept submissions from writers who identify as women.
-
We accept previously published work as long as you retain the right to publish it and it has not previously won an award.
-
We expect all work to demonstrate respect for others.
-
While we accept submissions of work for publication in the Anthology from outside of Australia, the prize will only be awarded to someone residing in, or a citizen of, Australia.
