The aim of " Australian Writing Opportunities" is to have a simple easy to read listing in closing date order of opportunities of writing competitions, writing awards and writing prizes to make it easier for writers to plan for their next entry. In most cases we have tried to link directly to the page on the website that has all of the details of the competition, prize or awards to save you time.

It is not intended to be comprehensive or complete and is a list purely made up of writing competitions writing awards or writing prizes that have been publicised through writing resources such as literary magazines and literary related information gathered from the internet.

If you would like to have your writing competition, writing award, writing prize or opportunity listed on the "Australian Writing Opportunities" website, please email the details and they will be reviewed by our editor and if found to be suitable they may be added to our listing.
