Launch of Sleepers Almanac X

Event Duration: 180 minutes

Every year for the past ten, the Sleepers editors have called for stories from around Australia – any length up to 10,000 words.

The result is always a heartbreaking and hilarious combination of tales from established authors alongside emerging and completely new authors. Many Sleepers Almanac stories have gone on to be selected for the Best Australian Stories, a testament to the high quality of the stories in here. For anyone looking to indulge in stories that will entertain, look no further. As this is the final Sleepers Almanac X, this will become a collector’s edition.

“Despite the ever-increasing competition from newer literary journals, the high quality of this annual short-fiction anthology
remains intact.” —Australian Book Review
