Statement of Intent

Please include a short statement of intent (no more than the equivalent of one page), sharing your writing interests, why attending this workshop is important to you, and what you hope to gain from the experience.

We are pleased to announce the second annual Patrica D. Netzley Memorial Scholarship to be given to one deserving writer at the 2023 BSCCWW in May.

Patricia was a beloved writer who was agented by Andrea Brown for many years. Patricia’s husband set this Memorial Scholarship up to honor Patricia who loved the Workshops.

The Cape Scholarship is funded through the generosity of another children's writer who prefers to remain anonymous.

Application deadline: February 1, 2023

Applicants will be notified of our decision: February 15, 2023

General Information

The Cape Scholarship and the Patricia D. Netzley Scholarship both provide one full scholarship to an emerging children’s writer who would not otherwise be able to attend. Scholarship covers workshop, lodging, and most meals for the weekend. (Please note: Guest rooms are shared). All travel and any ancillary expenses are the responsibility of the writer.

Big Sur Scholarship Application Form (We are open to candidates from all walks of life)

ALONG WITH THE FORM ALSO SEND to lisa@bigsurchildrenswriters.com a writing sample. For MG and YA writers - the first three pages of your manuscript. For PB - one full PB.

Please note: You may not apply for the scholarship and be put on the list for the Workshop.

In anticipation of creating a unique experience for all, we limit critique group size to no more than five writers.
Serious children's writers only. Space is limited.

With writers joining us from many countries, and our intent to keep the Workshop limited, space is at a premium. Hence, our cancellation policy is as follows:

If you cancel 29 days or more prior to the Workshop, you will receive a full refund, less an administration fee of $300.

There are no refunds on cancellations thirty (30) days or less prior to the Workshop.

The Big Sur Children's Writers Workshop is dedicated to providing a harassment-free conference experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age or religion. We do not tolerate harassment of conference participants in any form. Conference participants violating these rules may be sanctioned or expelled from the conference without a refund at the discretion of the conference organizers.
