We are currently inviting abstracts and expressions of interest for our 21st Annual Conference, hosted by the University of Canberra. The conference is themed ‘Authorised Theft’, and will explore the processes of making creative works in writing. This conference will showcase creative works and highlight creative modes of writing; it will enable investigations of how we make and say; and it will provide opportunities to explore how creative writers engage with research.

Papers are invited in four streams:

1. a refereed scholarly stream (a work of scholarship on or about creative practice, intended for inclusion in the published conference proceedings);
2. a refereed creative stream (a creative work accompanied by a scholarly research statement, intended for inclusion in the published conference proceedings);
3. a general (non-refereed) scholarly stream; and
4. a general (non-refereed) creative stream; this should incorporate a scholarly framework that will be presented along with the creative element.
