Beyond words: Student creative writing competition
Every day, 12am to 11pm Friday 7 March to Sunday 1 June
Are you Australia’s most passionate young storyteller?
The Dymocks Beyond Words Competition is searching for Australia’s most creative and talented young writers. Open to primary and high school students across Australia, all entrants will be in the running to win a share of our $20,000 total prize pool.
The competition is free to enter and open theme – which means you can write about any topic, and in any genre you like. The key to winning is passion and creativity – we are looking for unique ideas, compelling characters, and stories that make us laugh, cry, gasp or cheer.
Within 500-1500 words, give us the story you’ve been waiting to share with the world!
Entries close 1st June.
