Writing @ Rosebank - Residential Writing Fellowships
Rosebank Writer's Retreat has opened in Victoria and is now offering residential writing fellowships for stays of up to 3 months.
Writing @ Rosebank invites writers to apply for a residential writing fellowship at Rosebank Retreat. The fellowships include accommodation and a modest stipend.
Writers with a specific project that would benefit from escape to the beautiful rural setting at Rosebank Retreat should apply to the Victorian Writers’ Centre.
Writers of fiction, non-fiction, essay, poetry, stage and screen are invited to apply. The fellowships are open to applicants from around Australia; however, half of the fellowships awarded will go to Victorian writers.
Applications opened 28 August and close 9 October 2009.
