fellowship

質問

I am an artist and an altogether determined person who has been working for years to edge my way into an extremely difficult professional field. I bartend at night so I can write and audition and apply during the day. Since I’ve gotten out of grad school, it’s been a struggle, but I would never give back the ecstatic highs I’ve experienced to avoid even the most shattering lows. Now I write plays and screenplays that I’m trying to get produced, and when I audition for things, it’s always for work I really want to be a part of. I’m applying for fellowships and meeting with potential producers of my work. I’ve fought through anxiety, depression, and extreme poverty to come to a place where I feel good and healthy enough to really put myself and my work out there and make a mark on the world.

edge my way intoは「苦労して入る」という感じでしょうか？
ここでのfellowshipsの意味を教えてください。よろしくお願いします

edge one's way into: 「徐々にその位置（地位）に近づいていく」

fellowships: 米国では将来有望と認められた「物書き（writers）」に対し、創作活動に専念できるよう、補助金／助成金を支給する団体が多くあるようです。この手の助成金のことを「fellowship」と呼んでいます。
