Residency
Write On provides a place of solitude and reflection on nearly 39 acres of woods, orchards, and meadows nestled between the water of Green Bay and Lake Michigan. Writers can work on a current project and find inspiration for the next without the distractions that hound them at home. Residencies range from one week to one month.
Applications
Applications are accepted year-round from writers in any literary genre, regardless of publication history, including students in graduate creative writing programs. Applications are also accepted from literary arts administrators who wish to focus on new initiatives for their organization. Writers awarded a residency are asked to complete a community service project in exchange for their time. You are encouraged to apply at least 8 months prior to your desired residency date. Application fee $40.
