Hello History-Lovers,
Here's the scoop on a generous grant for writers who were born in Africa, or whose parents were born in Africa. But hurry! It deadlines on October 1, 2015. THIS IS ONLY AN ALERT. That means I haven't vetted this; that's YOUR job. I'm just making you aware of its existence.
The Scoop
Applications for the 2016 Morland Writing Scholarship are now being accepted. Three scholarships of £18,000 (US $28,000) each will be awarded to fiction writers, and one prize of £27,000 (US $42,000) will be awarded to a writer of non-fiction. The scholarship is intended for writers who want to write a full-length book of 80,000 words or more. Deadline October 31, 2015.
