The mission of the Lynne and Louis M. Earle Residency is to foster creativity by providing writers with a serene, private space to work and reflect in the inspiring surroundings of the Texas Hill Country. Residencies are three to four months in length. They run in summer (June 1 through August 31), fall (September 1 through December 31), and winter/spring (January 15 through May 31). Actual start and end dates may vary. One residency is awarded per term. The program accepts applications in the fields of poetry, fiction, nonfiction, and playwriting. Located 50 miles south of Austin in the heart of Texas Hill Country, the 52-acre ranch provides residencies year-round. The grounds include a working stable, the donors' main residence, and the writer’s cottage. Residents must provide their own food and supplies, and prepare their own meals. The residency requires a minimum work requirement of 1.5 to 2 hours per day, 6 days per week. Residents must provide transportation to and from the residency. INFO Deadline: Open |
