Dear Friends, The PEN/Phyllis Naylor Working Writer Fellowship of $5,000 is offered annually to an author of children's or young-adult fiction, who has written two books of high literary caliber but who has not yet attracted a broad readership. The Fellowship is designed to assist a writer at a crucial moment in his or her career, when monetary support is particularly needed to complete a book-length work-in- progress.
        Note the change in the entry rules: There is no longer an upper limit to the number of novels that entrants have written, or a time limit on when they were published.Letters of nomination must be received before January 16, 2009. For detailed information on how to apply, please go to:

Thanks! Fran Manushkin and Susanna Reich, Co-Chairs, PEN's Children's/Young Adult Writers Committee
