A Postcard to Ernest
This week's postcard contains some advice on the scintillating topic of sentence structure! Plus: The Figueroa Sisters Fellowship Returns!
The Figueroa Sisters Fellowship Returns!
Thanks to the immense generosity of fellow InkBlossom Dahlma Llanos-Figueroa, acclaimed author of A Woman of Endurance and Daughters of the Stone, we are able to offer a $500 fellowship to a female writer age fifty or older. The fellowship will partially cover the tuition for attendance at either the InkBlossom gathering of writers in Stowe, Vermont this June or the InkBlossom gathering of writers in Santa Fe, New Mexico this October. To apply, send a five-page writing sample as a Word attachment (12 point Times New Roman Font, double-spaced, default 1” margins) to inkblossomwriters@gmail.com with the subject line FIGUEROA SISTERS FELLOWSHIP. State which gathering you want to attend. Applications must be in by the deadline date of MARCH 1, 2026. Thank you, Dahlma, for your ongoing generosity and support!




So happy to be able to help another mature writer on her journey. Hope to join you in one of these two retreats.
Oh, yes! I hope so too!
