We are looking to appoint a writer in residence to connect the landscape and forest inhabitants with wider audiences through written and spoken word. The residency will be based at the Countryside Education Trust in Beaulieu for 40 days, spread over a calendar year.
We are seeking an experienced writer with a history of publishing, who is keen to position their writing within the context of the New Forest National Park, and can respond to the range of seasonal activities that take place at The Countryside Education Trust. This Residency represents a substantial opportunity for the selected writer to establish new networks and to focus their work in a rich and diverse setting. The Residency will be developed specifically in relation to the selected writer, their practice and the proposed focus of their residency proposal.
ArtfulScribe invites expressions of interest from writers who have both a knowledge of and interest in nature and environmental writing.
The fee will be £5,000 for a commitment of up to 40 days over a maximum 12-month period.
