Loch Long crime writing residency launched

A new two-week residency for crime writers has been launched by Cove Park.

The fully-funded programme is for Scotland-based writers developing new work in crime fiction and scheduled to run in late March next year.

The writer will receive a total residency fee of £1,100 (£550 per week) and a travel allowance of up to £75 from the arts centre on the Rosneath Peninsula.

To apply, writers must be based in Scotland and have published at least one book with a traditional publisher.

Writers established in other genres but wishing to develop a crime writing project are also welcome to apply.

They should be developing new work in crime fiction, which could include sub-genres such as psychological or legal thrillers, detective fiction, police procedurals or private eye.

The deadline for applications is Monday December 4 at 6pm.

More information is available on the website or by emailing programmes & communications producer Alex Marrs on alex@covepark.org .
