Applications for residencies in 2024 are now open and will close on August 31st. Applying for a residency can be an intimidating thing for a writer – but don’t worry, we have a full explanation of the application on Storyknife’s website. You will find the link to the application on the same page.

In 2024, we’ll have two and four week residencies during the months of April through October for writers of varying genres and backgrounds.

Please know that you can email me with any questions. We want to make it possible for you to devote time to your writing. Your story is important!

Take care,
