Record number of entries for 2016 Nonfiction Prize

This morning we, along with our partners Express Media, tallied up the entries for this year’s Nonfiction Prize, and we’re delighted to say we’ve received an unprecedented number — an increase on entries of almost 20 per cent on 2015!

Over the next few weeks we’ll be busy reading all those submissions. We’re delighted to partner with Express Media to run this prize, and to see it continue to grow.

The Scribe Nonfiction Prize is a developmental award for writers aged 30 and under working on longform pieces or their first nonfiction book. Entries are between 5,000 and 10,000 words. Previous winners of the Prize have had books published with Scribe – you can read more about them here.

This year’s shortlist will be announced on Thursday 21 July. The winner will be announced at Scribe’s 40th birthday celebration in Melbourne on Thursday 18 August.
