Scholarship information for the Miles Morland Foundation for 2024/2025
Before they are well-known, it can be challenging for writers to make a living while writing. The Morland Memorial Foundation (MMF) grants a few Morland Writing Scholarships each year to assist in meeting this need. Each Scholar is given time to write the first draft of a finished book. Anyone who writes in English and was born in Africa, or whose parents were both born in Africa, is eligible for the scholarships.
Qualifications
- To qualify for the Scholarship a candidate must submit an excerpt from a piece of work of between 2,000 – 5,000 words, written in English that has been published and offered for sale, you must send clear evidence that the piece you upload as part of your application has been both published AND offered for sale.
- This will be evaluated by a panel of readers and judges set up by the MMF. The work submitted will be judged purely on literary merit.
- It is not the purpose of the Scholarships to support academic or scientific research or works of special interest such as religious or political writings.
- Submissions or proposals of this nature do not qualify.
Grant
Scholars writing fiction will receive a grant of £18,000, paid monthly over the course of twelve months. At the discretion of the Foundation, Scholars writing non-fiction, who require additional research time, could receive an additional grant, paid over a period of up to eighteen months.
Requirements
Scholarships are open to anyone writing in the English language who was born in Africa, or both of whose parents were born in Africa.
