Welcome to 2023!
Omega Writers has lots planned for 2023 … with more ideas in the pipeline. Make sure you don’t miss out on any important information by signing up as a member of Omega Writers. Click here to find out more.
The 2023 CALEB Award
The 2023 CALEB Awards will be for unpublished writers in the following categories:
- Unpublished Adult Fiction
- Unpublished Young Adult Fiction
- Unpublished Nonfiction
The contest is open to Australian and New Zealand Christian writers with a completed manuscript.
Note that the 2023 contest is for unpublished writers. However, published fiction authors will be permitted to enter the nonfiction category, and published nonfiction authors may enter one of the fiction categories.
Entries will open on 1 April and close on 30 April, so now is the time to finish your manuscript to ensure you’re ready to enter.
Conference
Omega Writers won’t be running an in-person conference this year, but there will be an online conference in October.
Dates, speakers, and cost will be available later in the year.
As always, members of Omega Writers will be able to register for a discounted rate.

- Sydney
- Wollongong
- Brisbane
- Toowoomba
