MA in Creative Writing?

A project for Labour weekend?

The deadline for submissions to the IIML’s online literary journal Turbine is here – so if you’ve been thinking of sending us some work, now’s the time to act. The official deadline’s today – but as the long weekend is almost upon us, we’ve decided to stretch it a little.

Therefore any poems, fictions or creative non¬fictions that are submitted by next Tuesday, 26 October, will be considered. Email your best work to turbine@vuw.ac.nz ¬ but please check out our submission guidelines first.

Calling next year’s writers

It’s also time to get serious about producing that first book or script: the application deadline for the MA in Creative Writing at the IIML is just over a week away.

Writers of fiction, poetry, scripts and creative non-fiction wishing to spend 2011 honing their craft at Victoria University should have their applications in by 1 November. If you want to find out a bit more about who we are and what we do, visit our website.
