Tayari's Blog: Got Ops?

Here are a couple of opportunities that have crossed my desk.

  • The application for Breadloaf isn't up yet, but I was thrilled to see that the Rona Jaffe Foundation is sponsoring 3 full rides to Breadloaf for women! This award will go to women who are either a) first time participants, have non-traditional backgrounds, or c)are working outside academia. I love it that they are trying to bring in folks who are outside of the loop.
  • It's Hurston/Wright season. Full time university students can compete for the Hurston/Wright college award. This was my first lucky break with Leaving Atlanta. I won the prize in 2000. (Mind you I sent in excerpts from the manuscript in 1997, 1998 and 1999, but the fourth time, apparently, was the charm.)
