Onoguwe Wins Working Class Writers Grant

Hannah Onoguwe is the winner of the 2024 Working Class Writers Grant for her work “Eyes of the Igbadai”.

The $1,000 grant is presented annually by the Speculative Literature Foundation (SLF) to “speculative fiction writers who are working class, blue-collar, financially disadvantaged, or homeless, who have been historically underrepresented in speculative fiction due to financial barriers which make it hard to access the writing world.”

Other authors shortlisted for this year’s grant were Katherine Cart, Loren Smith, Moraine Velasco, and Marianne Xenos.

For more information, see the SLF’s website.
