Face Out: Maximizing the Visibility of Emerging Writers


face out logo

It is often said that when a writer completes a book, her work has just begun. Emerging writers often find publication through small presses that struggle to compete in today’s competitive marketplace. The Face Out Program supports exceptional writers in partnership with their publishers to put a spotlight on important new experimental titles.

The Face Out program invites new applications every two years (funding permitting). Applications for the current round are no longer being accepted. If the program again receives funding, the next call for applications will take place in 2018.

FACE OUT: Maximizing the Visibility of Emerging Writers vol. 5 can be found here.

FACE OUT is made possible from generous support from the Jerome Foundation and the New York Community Trust.
