Description
The Children’s Literature Fellows are 12 serious children’s book writers who receive a year-long course of instruction that is customized, affordable, comprehensive, and professionally useful.
Fellows work independently with our outstanding faculty and, twice a year, come together as a cohort, once in July during the Summer Conference and a second time in January for a special Publishing and Editing Conference.
During their year, Fellows complete one publishable YA or middle grade manuscript, or, for chapter and picture book writers, either a series concept with one completed manuscript or, alternatively, three separate manuscripts.
Admission is selective. Children’s Lit Fellows receive Advanced Certificates in Creative Writing from Stony Brook Southampton’s MFA in Creative Writing and Literature.
