The FWNN Round-up: Writing bursaries, prizes, submissions and more!

The Freelance Writing Network's mega monthly round-up of bursaries, prizes, submissions, webinars, retreats and more!

Hello!

Welcome to the FWNN’s monthly round-up. I’m hoping it will feature regularly in the first 10 days or so of each month, with many submissions due towards the end of each month or just at the start of the next.

In this round-up I’ve put together a fantastic 42 different opportunities. It includes bursaries, awards, short story and poetry submissions, novel submission requests, writing retreats, webinars, prizes and all sorts.

There’s a huge range of content for you to explore. As writers we’re journalists, authors, teachers, copywriters, working in content mills, submitting to lit mags. Not one writer I know earns or publishes in one way.

So, hopefully this premium round-up can be of use to you. There’s such a wide range of opportunities that every subscriber to the Freelance Writing Network can make use of something in here.
