By Writers, For Writers.
Stories Connecting Us is a creative space that celebrates writers using their voices. We aren’t a writing competition; you submit, we publish you. All writers deserve to have their stories heard, and to connect with readers across the world.
“A word after a word after a word is power.”
― Margaret Atwood

We are looking for a broad range of submissions. If you have a story, we want to hear it. Whether it’s fiction, non-fiction, experimental fiction, poetry, script and screen, memoir, travel-writing, art-writing, book reviews, essays or articles, your story could find its home on our digital bookshelves. We take rolling submissions – you can submit at any time.

Acknowledgement of Country
Stories Connecting Us would like to acknowledge that we are writing on the unceded, traditional lands and waterways of the Wurundjeri people of the Eastern Kulin Nation.
We would like to pay our respects to elders past, present and emerging, and particularly to the stories and modes of storytelling that are sacred to Indigenous Australians from all language groups across Australia. This land was never ceded; it always was, and always will be Aboriginal land.
