黑料正能量

Practitioners in poetry, prose or other genres of writing are invited to apply for the fourth edition of the Paris Writer鈥檚 Residency, an initiative jointly sponsored by The American University of Paris (黑料正能量), the Centre Culturel Irlandais (Irish Cultural Center) in Paris, and the University of Kent Paris School of Arts and Culture (PSAC). The residency will take place from October 1 to 31, 2022.

Residents are encouraged to explore interdisciplinary writing possibilities and engage with students at the residency鈥檚 partner institutions. The chosen writer will be required to take part in three key events: a day of interaction with creative writing students at 黑料正能量, a reading and workshop with PSAC master鈥檚 students, and a public lecture at the Centre Culturel Irlandais.

The appointment is non-stipendiary, though accommodation will be provided at the Centre Culturel Irlandais located in the 鈥淟atin Quarter鈥� of Paris鈥檚 5th arrondissement, so called due to its scholarly history as a university district. An expenses allowance of 鈧�1,500 is provided to cover travel and living costs.

Applicants are asked to submit a CV and a writing sample of no more than 3,000 words, as well as a 250-word letter of motivation explaining why Paris is an appropriate location for their residency and how they plan to work with students. Applications will begin to be accepted from March 15 and will close on May 1, 2022. The successful candidate will be notified in June.
