Grants
Grants are available to writers to assist in your dream of creative writing with the challenge of finding success in this field of endeavor to place words to stories with a goal in mind. To help ease the struggle I have listed a few options to apply for grants that are available to take advantage of. Most have a deadline to apply and I will try and keep the list updated regularly.
