9 Months on Tuesdays from 6:00pm-9:00pm EST, starting June 7th, 2022 via Zoom

For LGBTQ+ writers, a lack of queer-focused guidance, support, and community in writing workshops can stifle or even stall progress for novels. Taking place over nine months, the Novel Immersive for LGBTQ+ Writers is a program uniquely designed to fill this void and help queer writers complete or make significant progress towards completing a draft of their novel in a supportive community. LGBTQ+ writers will leave this immersive with a finished and/or more polished draft, a trajectory for getting published (including support for applying to higher-level GrubStreet programs, such as the Novel Incubator), and a supportive queer writing community that they can hold onto long after the program is over.

Please Note: This program involves an application process. The deadline to apply is March 28th, 2022, by 11:59pm EST. All applicants will be notified in early May 2022.

The cost of the program is $2,495, payable in full before the start of class. Admitted students will be given a specific payment deadline. Fellowships of 25% – 75% tuition are available and based on a combination of merit and financial need. Applicants can apply for a GrubStreet Fellowship at the end of their application to the program.
