Tenacious Writing Fellowship
About the Tenacious Writing Fellowship
At Golden May, we believe that storytelling is both an art and an act of courageā€”one with the power to connect, heal, and transform individuals and communities. Our mission is to help writers build sustainable, joyful writing lives that honor who they uniquely are and the stories only they can tell. We recognize that systemic inequities often limit resources and opportunities for writers from certain communities. To help reduce those barriers, we are offering five Tenacious Writing Fellowships to writers whose voices are historically marginalized in the publishing world. Selected fellows will receive full access to our Tenacious Writing program, plus additional benefits, at no cost.Ā Learn more about the Tenacious Writing program here.
