I love working for an office. It makes me feel like a professional and helps the pages flow freely. That's why I have applied for TheOffice fellowship a few times in the past, and I have applied again this year. I considered hoarding this opportunity to myself, but I figured it was better karma to share the opportunity with the readers.
This is a FREE fellowship with a FREE application. It allows you 24/7 access to TheOffice facilities for six months. This is wonderful news if you live in Los Angeles and need a place to work!
This is an excellent opportunity for any writer to find the focus they need to get their next project done.
As their website espouses "1 room. 30 workstations. Aeron and Steelcase furniture. Bose headphones. Wifi throughout. Unlimited coffee/tea/water. Phones on vibrate. Conversations outside." This is a great place to work.

2019 FELLOWSHIP TO THEOFFICE
theOFFICE is a quiet, communal workspace in Santa Monica, CA in business for over 15 years. Our members are working screenwriters, novelists, journalists and other creatives, all committed to showing up and getting the work done. We know finding a quiet, inspiring workspace can be a challenge, especially for up-and-coming writers with limited funds; hence, the idea for a free fellowship – something we’ve offered every year since 2013.
