2011 Boroondara Literary Awards - Young Writers

Calling Boroondara's budding writers
Now is the time to pursue those dreams of becoming a published author.
The 13th annual Boroondara Literary Awards is now open. Budding writers have until 5pm on Friday 27 August to submit their entries.
Entrants have the potential to receive cash awards in two sections.

A prize pool of over $2,000 is available in the Young Writers section, with close to $3000 available in the Open Short Story category.

The Young Writers section includes categories for poetry and prose for students from Year 7 to Year 9 and Year 10 to Year 12, and young people living, working or studying in Boroondara.

The Open Short Story section is a national competition inviting literary works between 1500-3000 words from writers across the country. Anyone in Australia may enter this category. There is a Best Boroondara prize as well as general prizes.

The Boroondara Literary Awards will be conducted in partnership with Leader Newspapers and the Balwyn Rotary Club.
