Short-listed for Hawkeye Publishing Prize

Judges have announced the Short-List in the Hawkeye Publishing Manuscript Development Prize for 2021. My biography, Breaking through the pain barrier. The story of Michael J. Cousins AO made it onto the short-list.

The number of entrants trebled after the success of the 2020 competition, which saw four publishing contracts awarded.

The winner of this year’s competition receives an editing and coaching package valued at $2,500, as well as the possibility of a publishing contract.

Director Hawkeye Publishing, Carolyn Martinez, emphasised the value of being included on short and long-lists.

“A competition long or short-list can be just as valuable to a writer’s career as a win,” Martinez said.

“When Hawkeye Publishing is open for unsolicited submissions, a manuscript that has been professionally edited, or won any competition credits, signifies to us that the writing has been vetted and approved, and goes to the top of the reading pile.”

Congratulations to this year’s Short-List Hawkeye Publishing Manuscript Development Prize:

  • Annerleigh Pappos for Dimitri on the Overpass
  • Barry McErlean for Ghost Train & The Scarlet Moon
  • Fay Patterson for Empathy
  • Gabriella Kelly-Davies for Breaking Through the Pain Barrier
  • Gabrielle Davis for The Road to Freedom
  • Jennifer Grubb for Impact
  • Lindsay Bamfield for The Place Between
  • Timo Bozsolik-Torres for Project Scaevola
  • Troy Henderson for Head Grenade
  • Long-List Announcement, Hawkeye Prize 2021
