The ACT Writing and Publishing Awards are an Australian literary award presented by the ACT Writers Centre for the best books in the categories of non-fiction, fiction, poetry and children's literature written in the Canberra region. They have been awarded since 2004. The winners in each category receive a $500 prize.[1]

The Anne Edgeworth Fellowship is for an emerging ACT region writer, and commemorates Anne Edgeworth (also known as Anne Godfrey-Smith).[2]

The June Shenfield Poetry Award is for an emerging Australian poet, and is awarded in collaboration with Demos Journal.[3]

The Marjorie Graber-McInnis Short Story Award is for an emerging ACT region writer. It was established to commemorate the late short story writer Graber-McInnis, who lived in Canberra.[4]

The Michael Thwaites Poetry Award was previously known as the ACT Writers Centre Poetry Award.[5]

The Publishing awards span four categories of fiction, non-fiction, poetry and children's books.[6]
