My first impulse, when I see something like the Speculative Literature Foundation’s Older Writers Grant, is to share it with everybody. Then I immediately have a counter impulse: I should keep it to myself! Why go out of my way to encourage competition? And then I have a counter-counter impulse: I’d rather be a member of a supportive community of writers.
At that point, I usually go ahead and share the opportunity with everyone that I think might be interested, with any slight feeling of foolishness balanced by a slight feeling of virtuousness.
In this case, I got over my selfish impulse extra quickly, because I don’t know that many speculative fiction writers over 50 anyway.
They also do an annual travel grant, so that’s a reason to click on over, even if you’re under 50.
