WCDR Scholarship Finalist

Thank you for your submission to our very first granting program. We were thrilled to see the number of accomplished entries and enjoyed reviewing the many writing samples that were provided.

This was an extremely challenging competition to judge – we wished we had twice as many grants to give out as we did. While your application was not chosen, we want you to know your submission made it into the “finalists.” We were impressed with your passion and your vision, the effort and discipline you have put into developing your writer’s craft so far and the goals you articulated for the next steps in your writing career.

By submitting your application to our scholarship program you took an important step in developing your writing career. This is our first year of offering scholarships and we hope to continue to be able to offer this opportunity to our members in future years. We strongly encourage you to apply again next year and to apply to other programs in the meantime – you have a very strong contender in your entry and with continued application we have not doubt of your eventual success in getting the funding you are looking for.

We wish you success in your future studies and especially in your writing journey.

Thank you again for your application to The Writers' Circle of Durham Region Scholarship and Granting program for 2010.
