One is the David T K Wong, open to both published and unpublished writers; and the other is the CharlesPick Fellowship for budding writers who are willing to write fictional and non-fictional prose in English.
The David T. K. WongFellowship is a nine-month residential Fellowship, with an award of £26,000.

The CharlesPick Fellowship is a six-month residential fellowship with an award of £10,000. The Fellowship seeks to continue this spirit of encouragement by giving support to the work of a new and, as yet, unpublished writer of fictional or non-fictional prose. Its dual purpose is to give promising writers the opportunity complete a major work and to develop his/her talents. The Fellowship starts on 1 October 2011. Deadline for applications: 30 January 2011
