History
'Established in 2001, the Johnno Award is named for Queensland Writers' Centre founding patron David Malouf’s novel Johnno and is awarded by the Queensland Writers Centre Management Committee to an individual or group in recognition of their outstanding contribution to Queensland writers and writing. The award acknowledges work largely unrecognised by the industry and wider public. The recipient can be from any level of the industry within Australia and is announced at the Queensland Writers Centre Calendar of Events Launch in early December.
