About the publisher

Voiceworks is a national literary journal that publishes exciting new writing and art by young people in Australia. Their purpose is to create a space for people under twenty-five to develop their creative and editorial skills and to publish, and be paid for, their fiction, nonfiction, poetry, comics and art. Every piece is blind read and each selected piece goes through a collaborative editing process and they provide individualised feedback for all unsuccessful submissions.

Voiceworks is largely produced and edited on the lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation. They pay respects to the traditional custodians of the land and recognise that sovereignty was never ceded. This always was and always will be Aboriginal land.

Voiceworks is published by Express Media, a not-for-profit organisation that provides support and development opportunities for young people in the literary arts. You can find out more about Voiceworks at https://www.voiceworksmag.com.au/
