Mentoring
REGRETTABLY, DUE TO FUNDING RESTRICTIONS, THE WRITING EAST MIDLANDS MENTORING PROGRAMME WILL RETURN AFTER APRIL 2012
Our mentoring service offers support and advice to writers of great promise and commitment. The scheme matches the selected writers to a sympathetic, established, professional writer.
This relationship will be for an agreed period of time and will focus on developing the work of writers who have reached a critical point, enabling them to step beyond the private process of writing and onto a new level. Ultimately, the service will help writers to develop their work to a publishable standard.
We will require writers to develop a specific piece of work-in-progress. Support will be provided in a number of sessions with an established writer, who will offer constructive criticism to help take the work forward. The mentor will be selected, in consultation with the applicant, from a panel of experienced writers established for this purpose.
