Getting published panel discussion 

Proudly Supported by  Metro Arts & bRUNSWICK Mechanics Institute 

This month our Melbourne panel will be all about how to have your work published in magazines and literary journals. At this panel we will be bringing together editors from prominent Melbourne-based publications who will share what they love to see in a pitch or submission, mistakes for new writers to avoid and other must-have industry knowledge. If you’re just getting started in your writing career, this panel is not to be missed!

Joining our panel will be some crucial voices in the Australian publishing scene; Hella Ibrahim founder and editor of Djed Press and Jini Maxwell co-director of National Young Writers Festival and editor of The Lifted Brow.  The panel will be moderated by our founding editor Bonnie Stevens.
