Becoming A Fellow

If you are a serious-minded, committed writer with a solid grounding in the fundamentals of fictional craft, you should consider applying to become a Kimbilio Fellow.

Applications for new Fellowships open in January of each year. Interested writers submit a sample of their fiction writing and a short essay about why they are interested in becoming a Kimbilio Fellow. Applications are juried by outside evaluators who are themselves accomplished fiction writers.

New Fellows are announced in the spring, along with final arrangements for the summer retreat.
