The Writers' Colony at Dairy Hollow is pleased to offer the 2012 Fab Fiber Fellowship for writing with an emphasis on the fiber arts. Applicants must have either a proposed project or a work in progress such as an article, book, instruction pamphlet, biography, journal, memoir, or mystery novel. Knitting, spinning, weaving or the processes and fibers used in those arts must be central to the project. (At this time we do not have a sound proof space that can accommodate noisy looms.)

Each resident has a private suite with writing space, private bath, wireless and/or cable hook up, uninterrupted writing time, dinner prepared five nights a week and served in our community dining room, the camaraderie of other professional writers when you want it, and a fully stocked community kitchen for breakfast and lunch.
Recipients will be asked to donate their time for a two hour in-house event as part of our community outreach program. The format of the presentation is up to the Writers' Colony Fellow and can be a lecture, slide show, Q&A, reading, demonstration, gallery showing, etc.
Submissions must include application fee, a one page bio, a maximum 500-word description of the focus of your residency at the Writers' Colony, and 2 letters of recommendation.

Friday, December 10, 2010 at 12:52PM We would like to thank everyone who applied for the 2010 Architecture & Design Writing Fellowship this year. The applicants were all terrific and the judges had a tough time making a decision.
Still, there could be only one winner, and we are happy to announce that Nalina Moses of New York, NY, is the recipient of the four-week residency with travel stipend. Nalina is a design writer with a background in architecture and we are very much looking forward to her stay at the Writers' Colony at Dairy Hollow in the upcoming season.
Congratulations, Nalina!
