The 2014 Stella Prize: entry stats
Huge thanks to all the publishers and authors who submitted books in the 2014 Stella Prize. Entries have now closed, and our fabulous judges are making their way through more than 160 books, all by Australian women.
This year saw a slightly higher proportion of non-fiction books than last, although fiction entries still outweighed non-fiction 60% to 40%. Once again we received an inspiring diversity of entries from around the country: books from big publishers and small presses; self-published titles and a number of ebooks too.
We’re all hanging out to see what will make the 2014 longlist, to be announced on 13 February.
