Spring Creek Project is partnering with Grist to host a 2024-25 Environmental Writing Fellowship and Residency on the theme of Climate Fiction. The winner of Grist’s annual “Imagine 2200: Climate Fiction for Future Ancestors” short story contest will be awarded a year-long fellowship to continue or expand on their climate writing project.

Imagine 2200 is an invitation to writers from all over the globe to imagine a future in which solutions to the climate crisis flourish and help bring about radical improvements to our world. The series celebrates stories rooted in equitable climate progress, creative climate solutions and community-centered resilience.

Writers are invited to submit original fiction of 2,500 to 5,000 words. There is no entry fee to apply. We invite you to read the latest Imagine 2200 collection to learn more.

Spring Creek Project will award the fellowship recipient a $3,000 honorarium, which is in addition to the contest prize winnings awarded by Grist. The fellow will also receive up to four weeks in residence at the Cabin at Shotpouch Creek and ongoing support from Spring Creek staff.

The submission deadline for Imagine 2200 is June 24, 2024. Learn more and submit your work.
