Applications are live for our NYT editor-taught next writing workshop for academics and researchers, which will be held @Northeastern on October 18th & 19th. Apps are short, 3 pitches, CV, writing sample, due July 30th. You need not be a tenure-track academic, just need to have defended/received your terminal doctorate degree (JD, MD, PhD) by the time of the workshop.

12 attendees are selected and come into the workshop with a first draft of a 800-1200 word 'ideas' piece (as I like to say, "short pieces for wide audiences about big ideas"), and walk out with a polished, pitchable draft and the skills to produce many more. You'll also receive $2,000 to defray the cost of coming to Boston, as well as ongoing support for years to with yours truly.
