Whipple Writing Fellowship

About

The Whipple Writing Fellowship offers Brookline High Students who love the written word an opportunity to develop and expand their skills as writers. The cornerstone of the program is paid summer writing residency. As Fellows, participants join a supportive cohort of fellow aspiring writers, receive a generous stipend to encourage their work, and learn from professional writers from across a spectrum of writing styles on how to craft a piece of writing that will ultimately be presented in a public forum and submitted for publication on our website.  The Whipple Fellows are chosen through a competitive application process in the spring and complete their fellowship by the end of the summer.
