2026 Scholarship Opportunities

“Attending the conference opened the door to a lifelong dream! I have always had this story that I've carried in my heart through all the phases of my life. It is clearer to me at times and then fades, comes back, but never goes away.  I believe this dream would have left me permanently, though, because I did not believe that I could write. My science background is so much more practical than my imagination. Attending the conference was a gift—truly because of the scholarship—that has filled me with confidence and motivation to finally climb this mountain.  I don't know the outcome, but I do know that I am fulfilled while writing and, if dreams do come true, I will have a novel to share someday.”
