This from The Paris Review yesterday:
The Paris Review is partnering with the Standard, East Village to find a Writer-in-Residence. The idea is this: in January, a writer with a book under contract will get a room at the Standard, East Village, in downtown Manhattan, for three weeks’ uninterrupted work. Applications will be judged by the editors of The Paris Review and Standard Culture.
Ah, so the catch is that you have to have a book under contract.
As Richard Lawson put it at The Atlantic Wire:
[S]o you can't submit the Torchwood fanfic that you've been meaning to self-pub. No sir, this is only for legitimate writers. (As deemed by a small group of publishing people in New York City, anyway.)
Thoughts on this opportunity of a three-week lifetime for an author with a book deal?
