*** Here's the grist of it:
Eligibility Residencies are open to all writers of fiction, nonfiction, poetry, screenplays and dramatic prose. There are no nationality restrictions, however, applicants should be over 21 years old at the time of application and be writing in English. Unpublished authors and past applicants are also eligible. Application Details Opening date: October 16th, 2017. Closing date: January 1, 2018 midnight GMT. Late applications will not be accepted. Results will be announced on March 15th, 2017 at the Shanghai International Literary Festival (March 15-28, 2018). The results will also be available on the M Literary Residency website[1] in March 2018. Due to the volume of applications received, we regret that the residency is unable to enter into private correspondence with applicants nor offer any specific feedback to unsuccessful applicants. Funding The successful applicants will receive accommodation and a total stipend of USD 1,000 to cover additional costs during their stay. Applicants are responsible for their travel/medical insurance and visas. There is a possibility of assistance in covering transportation costs to and from the residencies, but this cannot be guaranteed; we recommend you find a source to cover transportation costs. Accommodation Shanghai: a studio-style apartment and a 1,000 USD stipend will be provided. Accommodation is centrally located and in the thick of a noisy city. Whilst it is intended that the writer should be seeking a period of sustained work, it must be noted that this will probably not be happening in very quiet surroundings.
