Have you ever considered grants to support your dreams and ideas? Think grants are only for researchers and nonprofits? Think again, my friends.

In early 2022, I launched a newsletter curating grants and other hard-to-find funding opportunities for U.S. creatives like writers, authors, journalists, podcasters, photographers, filmmakers, and artists. 

What happened next was shocking!

Grants For Creators was an instant hit, gaining hundreds of subscribers. Grants For Creators encourages creatives to see themselves as worthy of funding through grants and other funding mechanisms. 

In this episode, I share why grants are worth applying to as a creative and small business owner, how to search for grants, and how to get funding for your projects.
