These are the lucky recipients of the arts council bursaries. Some well known names and some new ones (for me)
Not me though. What does an emerging writer have to do to get some arts council money? Maybe I didn't ask for enough.
Claire Kilroy Multi-annual bursary. €45,000 awarded over 3 years: €15,000 in 2008, €15,000 in 2009 and €15,000 in 2010 Fingal County Council
David Wheatley United Kingdom €10,000 (Wonder why the English arts council doesn't fund him?)

Hang on, she's already published - what the bloody hell does she need 45 grand for??
And where do I apply?!
absolutely. She should go halves with me. Next closing date is early next year. They offered 76 out of 373 applications from February, most in Visual arts and English language literature
Susan Carleton has a blog at http://stonyriverfarm.blogspot.com/
