Attention, European writers! The deadline (April 15, 2008) is fast approaching for applications for the Nico Colchester Journalism Fellowship. Intended "to help continental writers understand Britain and British writers understand continental Europe," two awards are available this year. One is for a British or Irish applicant and will include a fellowship in continental Europe at an Economist office; the other is for an applicant from elsewhere in the EU, and will take place in London at the Financial Times. "Both winners will receive a bursary of £5,000 to cover accommodation and travel. To apply you must send a 1,000 word article on the subject of "Europe's Message to the next American President," plus your cv and a cover letter. No application fee. Details here. (Thanks to BJ Epstein for this tip.)

Been yearning for a set of market guides? A package including our three e-books (focused on no-cost contests, paying essay markets, and paying markets for book reviewers) is on the auction block here. As I've mentioned before, this is for a very good cause. So help your writing practice and do good for others at the same time!
