THE SUNBURST AWARD SOCIETY ANNOUNCES THE RETURN OF THE SUNBURST AWARDS FOR EXCELLENCE IN CANADIAN LITERATURE OF THE FANTASTIC
The Sunburst Award Society is delighted to announce the return of the Sunburst Award for Excellence in Canadian Literature of the Fantastic after a four-year hiatus. The pause has allowed the volunteer-run Sunburst Award Society to restructure the award and offer increased prize money.
Since its inception in 2001, the Sunburst Award for Canadian Literature of the Fantastic has raised the public's awareness of works of speculative literature and honoured deserving works through its prestigious awards program. Over two hundred and twenty-five works have been acknowledged for their contribution to the arts in Canada, and thirty-eight truly outstanding authors have also benefited from monetary recognition.
The Sunburst Award Society is thrilled to be once again celebrating exceptional Canadian speculative writing and we thank our members, our jurors, the publishing community, authors, and readers for their ongoing support.
Submissions open October 21, 2024.
