If you’ve written about social justice issues this year, you’re eligible to submit your work for the Dave Greber Freelance Writers Awards.
There are two awards — one for books and one for magazines — both of which are given to freelance writers of non-fiction on social justice-related topics. Books and magazines that have not yet been completed for publication are also eligible for submission.
The book award is for $5000 and the magazine award is for $2000. Both awards may be split into two equal prizes if the jury decides there are two submissions of equal merit. Applicants must be residents of Canada and spend 70% of their work time as self-employed freelance writers in order to be eligible for the awards.
The closing date for submissions is Friday, June 12, 2015 at 5 PM PST.
Check out the Dave Greber Freelance Writers Awards website for more information or to submit your work for an award.
