About Us
Fantastic Queensland is run by volunteers. We seek to promote the development and appreciation of speculative fiction material - in printed or on-line literature, film, TV, games, or any other medium. Founded by members of Vision, an active group of speculative fiction writers that has operated for many years in Brisbane, we hope we play a positive part in developing international recognition of Australian speculative fiction writers and other creative talents.
Our strategy has several parts:
- To provide the means for local talent to develop to internationally competitive standards (See: Clarion South and EnVision).
- To celebrate the success of Australian writers and our colleagues across Australia (See: Aurealis Awards)
- To encourage the development of new outlets for writers, and opportunities for authors to gain exposure and credibility in the market place (See: Magazine and Writing for Games)
- To encourage the development of a sense of community among those interested in Speculative Fiction, by encouraging information sharing and camaraderie across Australia and the globe (See: Conjure)
If you would like to become involved in any way, or require further information, feel free to contact us.
