for
Michael King Writers Centre Residencies
2019
The Michael King Writers’ Centre
provides a year-round programme of residencies at the
historic Signalman’s House on Takarunga Mt Victoria in
Devonport, Auckland. Residents receive accommodation, the
use of a writing studio and a generous stipend.
The 2019 programme offers 15 residencies for periods of two to five weeks each. Four of the residencies are specifically for Māori or Pasifika writers. New in this year’s programme is a change to the University of Auckland Residency, now split into four time slots across the year to attract a wider range of established writers.
Who Can
Apply?
Writers from all over New Zealand,
including those who live in Auckland, are welcome to apply.
The four residencies offered in partnership with the
University of Auckland are for established authors with a
substantial publishing record. The shorter residencies are
open to emerging, mid-career or established
writers.
Applications close on Monday 3 September, 2018 and the selections are expected to be announced in October.
