This six-week workshop is open to writers who are considering applications for--or wish to learn about--creative writing grants, fellowships, and residencies. This workshop will cover:
*The best places to locate opportunities.
*The dreaded Project Statement, Work Plan, or Goals and Objectives question.
*How to demonstrate a rising trajectory (remembering that most people who are awarded grants are on their way up, not already there).
*Using headings and "buckets" to make your statement navigable.
*How to craft clear, concise personal or artist statements. (You'll leave this class with a completed first draft in hand!)
*Why the marketing angle is so important.
*Creating an effective literary resume. (You'll have a nice new one at the end of class!)
NOTE: You may be eligible for a CCI Quick Grant to support the cost of registration for this class. Learn more at
