Serious non-fiction and literary fiction, published from Melbourne.
The press
Award Winning Creations is an independent press. We publish books that take a hard subject, work it through properly, and leave the reader able to do something they could not do before.
Our list is mostly serious non-fiction, with room for literary fiction. Every book is edited, typeset and checked as a book should be, and our non-fiction shows its sources.
The name is an aim, not a claim. We would rather be judged on the work.
