When I find a writing opportunity, I like to share.
If you’re not following Aerogramme Writers’ Studio yet, you definitely should! Like right now. Go. I’ll wait. 😉
Okay, now that you’re back, let’s get to business.
Aerogramme sends regular monthly emails with opportunities, and then a number of other emails throughout the month when they discover something new. Now you don’t have to waste your time not writing because you’re looking for avenues to showcase your work, they’ll come to you.
Here are two, for example:
- Kathy Fish Fellowship for Flash Fiction Writers via SmokeLong Quarterly. Applications will be accepted until September 15th which is only a week away, but there’s no entry fee (although a $5 donation is suggested) and they accept unsolicited material all year round.
- Buzzfeed’s 2nd Annual Emerging Writers Fellowship is open until October 1st. The winners will spend four months being mentored in either NY or LA and win $12,000 to financially support themselves while they learn. There is a great deal of work required to enter this one (a resume, a personal statement, 5 writing examples, and 3 letters of reference), so if you’re interested, get crackin’!
Wishing you the very best in all your endeavors! Good Luck!
