Writer to Writer Mentorship Program

Season 19 is underway! Mentee applications for Season 20 will be open from February 15–March 15, 2024. Mentor applications are accepted year-round.

AWP's mentorship program, Writer to Writer, runs twice a year for three months per session. We match emerging writers with published authors to work towards the mentees’ writing goals. Mentors volunteer their time and receive a free one-year AWP membership. Writer to Writer is free of charge, though we do require that mentees have an active AWP membership to participate in the program.
