Gladstone's Library Writers in Residence 2023: Apply now
Deadline: Fri 6 May 2022
Gladstone’s Library’s competitive Writer in Residence programme has restarted. Founded by William Ewart Gladstone in 1894, the Library is committed to maintaining his legacy of engagement with social, moral and ethical questions. Its residency programme provides space and resources for four writers working in the English language whose work engages with liberal values.
Entry requirements:
Open to writers at all stages of their career with a book contracted or published in the last three years. Prose fiction and non-fiction, poetry, screenplays and drama are all eligible for submission. The Residency programme will consider unpublished scripts if submitted with evidence of performance and manuscript submissions accompanied by evidence of a contract and publishing schedule.
The proposed dates of the tenures are February, May, September and November. Residencies can be taken in two two-week blocks, and residencies of a single fortnight will also be considered. We are also flexible with dates.
Each residency includes:
Accommodation in an ensuite room for a period of four consecutive weeks;
All meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) and refreshments (telephone calls, alcoholic drinks, packaged snacks and formal Afternoon Tea are not included);
Travel expenses to and from the Library at the start and end of the residency (HMRC mileage allowance or standard bus/train fares within the UK);
An honorarium of £100.00 per week.
