Melbourne Young Writers' Studio Competitors

Scribe has been operating as a wholly independent trade-publishing house for more than 40 years. What started in 1976 as a one-man band — with publisher Henry Rosenbloom’s desire to publish ‘serious non-fiction’ — has turned into a multi-award-winning company with more than 25 staff members in two locations — Melbourne, Australia and London, England — as well as a scout in New York, and a dedicated publicity and marketing team on the ground in the US. We love what we do, and we hope you will, too.

The Editorial Department is one of publishing's oldest authors' services firms with a 44-year track record of helping good manuscripts become great books. We have 13 editors and manuscript consultants on staff along with a talented team of screenplay and adaptation specialists who are all here to help our clients write the best books possible and provide expert support on both traditional and independent paths to publication.

Melbourne Writers Festival brings writers and readers together to be inspired, challenged and thrilled by an intelligent, rousing and diverse program of books and ideas. Since 1986, the organisation has entertained hundreds of thousands of readers as Australia’s boldest literary festival. Based in Melbourne, a UNESCO City of Literature, we provide the inspiration and framework for vital, timely conversations.
