House of Stories
House of Stories is an anthology (2024–present) series showcasing fiction by young writers aged 7–18 from our weekly Story Writing Groups and Mentorships. Replacing The Young Explorers’ Journal of Forgotten Stories, this high-quality publication reflects each writer’s journey from idea to polished story with the support of a writing mentor. Available at Readings (Carlton), The Little Bookroom, and our Writers’ Store, the anthology is launched annually at our end-of-year book launch and story festival at The Edge, Fed Square.

Each year, young writers enrolled in Story Studios Australia programs have the opportunity to see their stories published in our beautiful annual anthologies. Those young writers who become published authors in our print publications celebrate all they have achieved at our end of year book launch (previous launches have taken place at venues such as The Edge, Fed Square and The State Library), and can see their stories on the shelves of some of Melbourne’s finest bookstores; Readings Kids Carlton and The Little Bookroom.
