Can one artist apply to both fiction and creative nonfiction?
ArtSake says
Hi, thank you for your interest in the Artist Fellowships and for your question. We consider Fiction/Creative Nonfiction to be one discipline category, so an artist can only apply once in Fiction/Creative Nonfiction. An applicant could submit work samples including both fiction and nonfiction works, so long as the total pages is 20 pages or fewer.
