NEA Literature Fellowships: Creative Writing, FY2019
You may submit only one application for FY 2019 funding.
You may not apply for both a Literature Fellowship under this deadline and a Translation Project under the December 5, 2017 deadline.
Grant Program Description The National Endowment for the Arts Literature Fellowships program offers $25,000 grants in prose (fiction and creative nonfiction) and poetry to published creative writers that enable recipients to set aside time for writing, research, travel, and general career advancement.
Applications are reviewed through an anonymous process in which the only criteria for review are artistic excellence and artistic merit.
To review the applications, the National Endowment for the Arts assembles a different advisory panel every year, each diverse with regard to geography, race and ethnicity, and artistic points of view.
The National Endowment for the Arts Literature Fellowships program operates on a two-year cycle with fellowships in prose and poetry available in alternating years.
For FY 2019, which is covered by these guidelines, fellowships in poetry are available.
Fellowships in prose (fiction and creative nonfiction) will be offered in FY 2020 and guidelines will be available in January 201 9. You may apply only once each year.
Competition for fellowships is extremely rigorous.
We typically receive more than 1,000 applications each year in this category and award fellowships to fewer than 5% of applicants.
You should consider carefully whether your work will be competitive at the national level.
