the “miss sarah” fellowship for black women writers

The “Miss Sarah” Fellowship for Black Women Writers aims to provide Black women writers a restful environment conducive to reflection and writing. It also offers uninterrupted, independent time to plant the seed of an idea for a new writing project or to develop or complete a project underway.

For 2025 the Fellowship will focus on the genre of Poetry.

Dates: The preferred dates for a “Miss Sarah” Fellowship in 2024 are July 10-20. However, the panel will consider other dates.
