Writer: Grants!

No comments, just trying to give any interested readers notice of these grants.

The Diverse Writers Grant OPEN JULY 1, 2025 – JULY 31, 2025

Your project does not need to center on identity issues. We also do not expect or want work that simply attempts to check off all the boxes in a tokenistic way, but rather are looking for writing that offers deep characterization, complex cultural landscapes, and strong literary quality overall.  

The submitted project must be a book-length work of speculative fiction. This grant, as with all SLF grants, is intended to help writers working with speculative literature. Speculative literature spans the breadth of fantastic writing, encompassing literature ranging from hard science fiction to epic fantasy, including ghost stories, horror, folk and fairy tales, slipstream, magical realism, and more. Any piece of literature containing a fabulist or speculative element would fall under our aegis. Nonfiction, poetry, picture books, and editorial projects are not eligible for either grant.

These grants are designed to foster new, in-progress work, not to recognize already published work. We intend that grant funds will facilitate completing the work.
