Sydney-based writer Damian McDonald has been announced as the winner of the 2007 ABC Fiction Award.
McDonald's novel, Luck in the Greater West, was chosen from over 400 entrants. The prize is worth $10,000, and the book will be published by ABC Books as part of the award.
Last year's award was won by Will Elliott for his novel The Pilo Family Circus, which has done pretty well for itself in the past 12 months.
