In this remote mentorship, instructor Ann Guy will offer personalized guidance and feedback on your creative nonfiction work, including memoir, personal essay, lyric essay, travel writing, and experimental forms.
“I love helping writers achieve their goals,” says Ann. “Whether you’d like to develop something that’s already in progress, hone your craft, or work toward finishing an essay, chapter, or book, I’ll bring fresh eyes to your writing and honor your voice and vision.”
Over nine weeks, the mentorship will involve three packets of written correspondence which Ann will discuss with you in an initial 30-minute orientation. Every three weeks you’ll email Ann a packet consisting of: 1.) up to 7,000 words of creative nonfiction for written feedback; 2.) a short critical engagement with another writer’s work to sharpen your craft (Ann will provide each assignment); 3.) a letter to Ann where you can ask questions and reflect on your creative practice, craft interests, and writing goals. Ann will review and respond to each of these packets in writing. With each packet response, she will also offer an optional 20-minute online meeting to discuss your work.
This mentorship is ideal for creative nonfiction writers who are craving the feedback that workshops can provide but are looking for a more focused engagement where their specific interests and concerns can be addressed individually.
This class is for intermediate writers and above.
