This year is a transition period for the awards, as it moves from a financial to calendar year for eligibility titles. As such, last year’s longlisted titles were discounted from proceedings.
Please see our 2014 longlist on insideadog.com.au for more details about the books. Applications will open from 20th March to be one of our six teen judges - you have until 14th of April to get your submission in.
A reminder that the shortlist will be announced at the Melbourne Writers Festival in August, at which time voting will open. The winners will be announced at an Inky Awards Ceremony on 21st of October at the State Library of Victoria. Please sign up for our enewsletter to be advised when bookings are open.
