Australian Book Review seeks applications for the ABR Sidney Myer Fund Fellowship.

This Fellowship - the third to be offered by ABR - is proudly supported by the Sidney Myer Fund.

We are seeking a substantial article with an Indigenous focus - either a profile of a major Indigenous literary/cultural figure or a discursive essay with Indigenous literary/cultural themes.

The Fellowship is worth $5000.

Any Australian writer with a significant publication record(books, creative writing, essays or journalism) is eligible to apply.

The ABR Fellowships are intended to reward outstanding Australian writers, to enhance ABR through the publication of major works of literary journalism, and to advance the magazine's commitment to critical debate.
