Some writing grants are awarded only to recipients in certain geographical locations. For example, Leeway Foundation grants are awarded only to female and trans applicants in the greater Philadelphia area. The Five Wings Arts Council awards writing project grants in Minnesota, specifically in Cass, Crow Wing, Todd, Morrison, or Wadena Counties .  Search for the writer's grant application you want by state by just simply typing in your location and the keyword "writers grants" or "creative writing grants" along with your state or city. For example, this might look like "writers grants Delaware," "writers grants in Delaware," "creative writing grants in new york city," or "literary arts grants Los Angeles."
