Fellowships

The Writers’ Room of Boston is no longer accepting applications for the 2013 Emerging Writer Fellowship. Please check back in September, 2013. 

The Writers’ Room of Boston is committed to supporting emerging local writers in need by providing a safe, secure workspace. We are proud to offer our Emerging Writer Fellowship program, which gives four juried writers full access to the workspace for one year.  Awards are based upon the quality of the submitted writing sample, the project description, and the statement of need. The Fellowships are open to writers of any genre.

If you do not have financial need, we ask that you please consider applying for regular membership.
