Welcome to our EZine

Fida Haq provided our first ezine page with his work "Time's Up" during the 2006 HomeWord Festival and since then we have (slowly!) posted more works, chiefly winners of the Western Sydney zine competition ZineWest

ZineWest 09

ZineWest 09 entries are due on 20th June 2009. Once again we thank our co-sponsor Prof. Ivor Indyk and the Writing and Society Research Group, UWS, for wonderful support. We are also in debt to Mars Hill Cafe for providing us a free and happy venue for many activities related to the success of ZineWest. But most of all we thank the writers who send us entries in such a varity of genre and style - this is what makes the zine strong and in touch with local communities. ZineWest entrants have not yet been commercially published but they are keen to share their skill and passion and we enjoy being able to publish short pieces by at least 30 writers each year. For details about prizes and competition rules please go to ZineWest Blog or New Writers Group Inc Website

ZineWest 08

New Writers Group Inc were delighted to publish a second ZineWest featuring a diverse collection of writing from across Western Sydney. The ZineWest 2008 winners were announced by our judge Dr Mridla Chackraborty, from the Writing and Society Research Group - UWS to a packed upper room in Mars Hill Cafe on 22nd November. The Research Group co-sponsor the prizes and offer New Writers Group valuable support in promoting the zine and in judging the competition. The entries eligible for prizes are those entries which have been selected by NWG Inc editors for publication in the zine. If you want to be on our ZW mailing list or have any queries contact the Editors.


ZineWest 07

How ZW began... The title was originally created for the New Writers' Group Inc Anthology 2006. We trialled an A5 zine format and whilst there was room for improvement, we liked the general style. We decided to open ZineWest 07 to writers from across Western Sydney. We received 140 entries from 70 entrants and published 34 writers in this 2007 print zine. The three winning entries in the associated competition by G. Culshaw, C. Hale, and S. Cavanagh, can be read in these e-pages. We have permanently given the title ZineWest to the regional zine but we still publish an in-house Anthology each year for regular gatherers and financial members.

ZineWest 07 - Launch and Prizes: The winners were announced and writers presented their works at a multi-media event during the HomeWord Festival 2007 on 10th June at Riverside Theatres, Parramatta. Our Judge was crime author Professor Jane Goodall (UWS Writing & Society Research Group). The HomeWord Festival 07 is hosted by New Writers' Group Incorporated and is supported by Parramatta City Council's 2006 Community Grants Scheme.
