The Annie Deeny Memorial Prize [Ireland]:
Launched by distinguished poet Fleur Adcock. Mrs Annie Deeny was a teacher and mother of six children who, although she wrote, never sought to have her work published. This perpetual prize is in her memory to encourage someone in a similar situation to write and to publish. It provides a two-week residency in the Tyrone Guthrie Centre at Annaghmakerrig plus €250 to cover extra costs. It will be awarded each year to a woman, preferably a mother, who is developing her career as a writer and whose promise will be nurtured by a period of residency at Annaghmakerrig.
