CRWROPPS Post: The Writers' Colony at Dairy Hollow is offering two new fellowship opportunities


Subject: The Writers' Colony at Dairy Hollow is offering two new fellowship opportunities
 

 

The Writers' Colony at Dairy Hollow is currently seeking submissions for a new fellowship, and we have another opening on December 15. Prior publication is not a requirement for either of these opportunities.

 

"Humor Me" is open to poets, fiction writers, playwrights, essayists, columnists, memoirists, and screenwriters who use humor as a key element in their work. While the humor may range from wry to screwball, the work should demonstrate literary merit and the promise of publication or production. 

 

The fellowship winner will receive a two-week residency at the Writers' Colony at Dairy Hollow in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. We provide uninterrupted writing time, a European-style gourmet dinner served on weeknights, the camaraderie of other professional writers when you want it, and a community kitchen stocked with the basics.

    

The submission deadline for "Humor Me" is midnight on Monday, February 22, 2021. The residency must be completed by March 31, 2022. Exceptions will be made if COVID-19 makes a residency inadvisable.  For an application form, visit writerscolony.org/fellowships.

 

The "My Time" fellowship is open to writers of any literary genre who are also parents of dependent children under the age of 18.  The successful applicant will demonstrate literary merit and the likelihood of publication.

 

The fellowship winner will receive a one-week residency.  A $400 stipend is available to cover childcare and/or travel costs. We provide uninterrupted writing time, a European-style gourmet dinner prepared five nights a week, the camaraderie of other professional writers when you want it, and a community kitchen stocked with the basics for breakfast and lunch.

The submission deadline for "My Time" is midnight on Monday, March 15, 2021. The residency may be completed at any time during 2021. Exceptions will be made if COVID-19 makes a residency inadvisable.  For an application form, visit writerscolony.org/fellowships.

 

Please share these opportunities with writers who you think might be interested.  A link to letter-sized posters for each fellowship is available here.

 

Thank you for helping us spread the word!

 

Stay safe, be well, and write on. 

 

Sincerely,

Michelle Hannon 

Executive Director
