Australia Council Grants

Hello everyone

Has anyone out there in writing land applied for an Australia Council Grant and been successful in achieving funding?

I am attending a seminar put on by the QWC
in conjunction with the Australia Council to provide information on Thursday February 15, at the Metro Arts Building.

I have been looking into applying for a grant for my novel. Has anyone else done this? Is anyone else from the Queensland Writing Group applying?

Anyway, I will let you know what I find out at the session, happy valentines and happy writing.



This is on my latest blog.



Are any of you attending tomorrow night? Have any of you been through the process?



I’d love to know any thoughts.



All the best
