Just a reminder that March 1 is the deadline to apply for the The Chicago Literary Club $1000 prize and fellowship. This three year fellowship is for a serious writer (nonfiction or fiction). The Club meets weekly for dinner, conversation, and the presentation of an original essay by a member. The Fellowship consists of free dinners for the fellow and a guest, a $1000 prize, and the opportunity to present an essay in the second year. We are hoping to support literary culture among younger writers in the Chicago area and open our membership and club culture to younger voices. I am on the selection committee. Application is on Submittable and is due March 1. https://chilit.submittable.com/submit/152915/ chicago-literary-club-collyer-fellowship-application
