SUMMARY
The Mary Withers Rural Writing Fellowship is an opportunity for young journalists to spend a
summer on a Kentucky farm working on long-form, narrative articles chronicling rural America. The
winner of the fellowship spends three months in Boyd’s Station along with two college photographers
who are also grant recipients. All three fellows share a house in Boyd’s Station and have access to
office space in the Boyd’s Station Gallery in Cynthiana, Kentucky (about 20 minutes away). All three
will be working on separate projects but will have the opportunity to collaborate occasionally.
WHEN + WHERE
The Mary Withers Rural Writing Fellow is expected to be in Harrison County, Kentucky, for a
continuous three-month period during the summer. Fellows are free to travel for personal reasons,
but we encourage them to stay in Kentucky as much as possible.
WRITING EXPECTATIONS
Fellows are expected to develop, report, and write 2 – 3 longform news feature articles each
summer. Boyd’s Station has a partnership with the Louisville Courier-Journal, whose editors revise
the final drafts and publish the articles. The fellow is also expected to write a first-person article
introducing themselves to the community, which is published in the Cynthiana Democrat. Beyond
those articles, the fellow is welcome to develop and write any other pieces that we will help publish
in whatever outlet is ideal for that particular piece.
OVERSIGHT
Alan Gomez, a former reporter and bureau chief for USA Today, is the director of the fellowship and
serves as the mentor/editor. He helps the fellow develop their story ideas, plot their reporting course,
and edits drafts of each article. Alan does not live in Kentucky, so fellows must be motivated selfstarters
who can thrive without constant supervision. Interactions will look like this:
Week 1: Alan visits Boyd’s Station to welcome the fellow and discuss story ideas.
Weeks 2 - 11: Alan and the fellow have a weekly video call to update progress as well
as additional calls throughout each week as needed.
Week 12: Alan visits Boyd’s Station to do final edits.
PAYMENT
The fellow is awarded a $3,000 grant and free housing for the summer. They are also reimbursed for
expenses related directly to their reporting, including gas. The only requirement is that the fellow
have a car as reporting in Harrison County is impossible without one. If a fellow fails to meet the
basic requirements of the fellowship, the grant money can be forfeited.
HOW TO APPLY + DEADLINE
Visit the link below to apply. The deadline is January 6, 2025.
