Alicia D. Williams Scholarship - The Alicia D. Williams Scholarship provides funds to support a Boyds Mills scholarship for a single parent. As a single parent, Alicia knows how hard it can be to find the time and space to get writing accomplished. This scholarship is meant to support a single writer by providing an opportunity to focus on their writing—whether through a Boyds Mills workshop or course, or a Personal Retreat at Boyds Mills.
Whole Novel Workshop: An In-Person Retreat for Novelists (October) - This intensive, transformative Whole Novel Workshop offers writers the rare opportunity to have the entire draft (up to 85,000 words) of a novel read by faculty, with detailed written feedback and two private consultations provided.
