Do you get the funds for writers newsletter?
I've never tried for a grant but this newsletter has a lot of info on the topic and some great writing leads and grant leads.

I find that getting these darn grants are like inheriting a million dollars. I have applied for several from our government with no luck. Something for nothing doesn't come easy unfortunately.... [Frown]

Starting Over - I'm not sure if this information will help you. I have Hope's "The Shy Writer" book and I know that she worked for the government and secured grant money. There may be some info in her site that is free which may be useful.
