News and Career updates

The National Jazz Writing Competition is a competition with a focus on jazz-related writing. For its first three years (2005-2007) the competition focused on reviews. In 2008, we focus on the short story.

    * Entrants should submit a short story with a maximum of 2,000 words.
    * The story must be about, inspired by or responding to jazz or improvised music. Where the reference to jazz is not explicit in
      the story you will also need to supply a brief (200 words maximum) explanation of the link. For example, if a story was inspired by
      the music at a gig or on a recording, name the musician(s) and give details of date and venue or CD.
    * Entries are invited from 1 March 2008. The competition deadline this year is Monday 30 June.
    * 1st Prize of $750 and publication in *extempore*, Australia's journal of jazz-related writing and art
    * 2nd and 3rd prizes of CD packs from Birdland Records and publication in *extempore*
    * See full submission guidelines at the competition website http://www.jazz-planet.com/njwc
