Uninterrupted Time to Write
The aim of this programme is to give writers – whether they are established or upcoming – an opportunity to focus all their attention on their manuscripts for a whole month. In this programme there are no mentors so that writers work at their own pace. The programme is in collaboration with PEN Afrikaans, PEN SA en PEN Nederlands.
