We are thrilled to announce the Mentorship Fellows & Finalists for our 2021 Mentorship Lab!
In August, we'll welcome these nine emerging writers to our third Mentorship Lab, which includes craft classes, genre workshops, a $1000 stipend, and individual mentorship meetings. This year's Fellows will learn alongside Arhm Choi Wild, our Poetry Mentor; Rajesh Parameswaran, our Fiction Mentor; and Larissa Pham, our Creative Nonfiction Mentor! The Mentorship Lab will run from August 2021–February 2022 and close with a culminating reading. We hope to create a space of collaboration, growth, and community for everyone involved in the Mentorship Lab.
