Author's CV and Writer's Statement
On this page, you can find the Author’s CV and Writer’s statement I have shared with the Canada Council for the Arts in the process of applying for an Explore and Create grant as a New/Early Career Author.
The Author’s CV is based on the format I found on the Hamilton Arts Council, which was also recommended to me by a program officer at the Canada Council for the Arts. The Writer’s Statement presents my current writing project covering fundamentals like why I write, what I write, what inspires or influences me, and how I intend to use the Explore and Create grant.
I hope that by sharing this information, other Canadian writers, especially new writers, feel encouraged to submit their application. If you want to keep up to date with the state of my application and receive pertinent tips and resources, please subscribe to my newsletter.
