GOOD STORY GRANT
The Good Story Grant enables writers to dream big in their creative journeys. Prizing strong goal-setting and making ideas a reality, this grant is open to writers of all skill levels, and working in all genres and categories. The award can be used however you’d like … as long as it has to do with writing and helps you tell your story. Past awards have included two annual grants: one open to all writers, and one open to writers who identify as BIPOC, with the aim of championing underrepresented voices.
