About the Kibble and Dobbie Awards
The Kibble Award was established by Ms Nita Dobbie in 1995 to recognise achievements in women's literature. Ms Dobbie founded the awards to benefit women writers of a published book of fiction or non-fiction, classified as 'life writing', to advance Australian literature and to help provide incentive to female writers. It can only be awarded to a female author of a work written and published during the period of the Award, and which also describes day to day Australian life.
In addition, Ms Dobbie established the Dobbie Encouragement Award for a first published work by a female writer.
