HELPING WRITERS REALISE THEIR
CREATIVE AND PROFESSIONAL DREAMS

Neilma Sidney Short Story Prize

Supported by the Malcolm Robertson Foundation, and named after the late Neilma Gantner, this prize seeks excellent short fiction of up to 3000 words themed around the notion of ‘travel’; imaginative, creative and literary interpretations are strongly encouraged. This competition is open to all writers, nationally and internationally, at any stage of their writing career.

The winning story will receive a $4000 first prize and be published in Overland’s first print issue for 2020. Two runners-up will each receive $500 and be published at Overland online to coincide with the release of the print magazine.
