Black Boy Review has launched a new project tagged The Writer’s Money. The project is aimed at curtailing the financial inhibition faced by young writers at the early stage of their career.
Here is a note from the team:
The project is a fund in vouchers for young and emerging Nigerian writers, living in the country, who are between the age bracket of 18 and 25. The funding ranges between N20, 000 to N30, 000 worth of books by African authors disbursed to successful applicants twice in a year, starting November 2021.
How to apply
Applicants must have a work (poem or short story) published in an online literary magazine or blog. Successful applicants will also be required to review the books they acquired via the vouchers for Black Boy Review
Send your name, location, age, and contact details, along side a maximum of 200 words essay of why you need the book support in 200 words, to bbrpressoffice@gmail.com – using “Book Grant” as the email subject.
Deadline for submissions is on 30th September each year.
