___New Guidelines Announced __for PEN/Phyllis Naylor Fellowship__;
__Deadline Extended to 12/19_

New guidelines have been announced for the 2015 PEN/Phyllis Naylor Working Writer Fellowship
<http://pen.us1.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=0809b771ad9123934911c8d9b&id=632f150b9c&e=720a0b641f>. The changes are intended to make it easier for writers to apply for the
$5,000 work-in-progress grant.

Previously, candidates had to be nominated by an editor or fellow writer and to have had at least two novels published. Under the new guidelines, authors can apply themselves and need only have published one novel, not two. Because of this revision of guidelines, the deadline for submitting to this award has been extended to *December 19, 2014*.

The prize is awarded annually to a writer in financial need who has published at least one warmly-received novel for children or young adults.

The new application guidelines are posted on the PEN website here
<http://pen.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=0809b771ad9123934911c8d9b&id=9ddcba6210&e=720a0b641f>. If you or an author you know meet the eligibility guidelines, get your application in today! For more information, email awards_at_pen.org
