The Bard Fiction Prize's First Decade
Awarded each October to “a promising, emerging writer who is an American citizen aged 39 or younger at the time of application,” the BFP offers a significant cash prize and a semester-long appointment as writer-in-residence at Bard College. Author and Conjunctions editor Bradford Morrow says he and fellow judges Mary Caponegro and Robert Kelly seek published authors “whose work we feel is original, ambitious, and shows profound promise for the future.”
