Please do! I can DM writing contests/magazines that are open right now, but you may already know all of them.

Thank you so much for that bit on Wisconsin! I didn’t know when they notified people. With the pandemic and all, the timelines seem wonkier & subject to change. Hope we both get good news very soon. (and yep! That's the one) If you’re still up to apply, here are some resources: > Rising Scholars Postdoc Fellowship https://uva.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/UVAJobs/job/Charlottesville-VA/Rising-Scholars-Postdoctoral-Fellows_R0022634 (I can’t apply because I earned my degree in 2018, but if you finished your MFA any time between 2019 and now, you should apply! Deadline is April 12th though) > Great blog with post-mfa fellowship info! https://post-mfa.tumblr.com/fellowships (I just found this today. Has a lot of fellowships with deadlines that go beyond May, so you'll have plenty time to prepare.) I’m sad that a lot of these places have specifications on when you received your degree. I should’ve applied last year, but granted, I'm just happy I survived 2020 lol.

Thank you! It was the Mellon postdoc at Grinnell. The interviewers were super nice and I loved their works/interests. I was rejected from UT Austin and am also waiting to hear back from Wisconsin. (The deadline was pretty late though wasn't it?) The last one is James Jones, which is a bit different I guess. There's so little info on creative writing postdoc fellowships! Maybe I'm not looking hard enough.

Anyone got an answer back from Creative Writing postdoc fellowships? I've been scourging this site but have yet to find anything on the programs I submitted to. (Didn't do Stegner, and Stegner was the only info I could find) Had my interview but have been waiting since then! It's torture. So far: One interview, one rejection, waiting to hear back from two others.
