Writers! An opportunity to be mentored by a publisher
The NZSA / Hachette
Mentorship program opens today
Today the New
Zealand Society of Authors (PEN NZ Inc) opens a brand new
program, the Hachette Mentorship Program. One writer gets
the opportunity to work on a new draft of their completed
manuscript under the joint mentorship of Hachette Australia
and New Zealand.
This new initiative is for writers of fiction, non-fiction or young adult fiction who have progressed a manuscript beyond first draft, but require the objective view of an experienced publisher to provide constructive critiquing for that manuscript.
The mentorship will be personalized for the selected candidate, and will run through 2016.
The selected manuscript may be considered by Hachette for publication within 6 months of delivery of a new draft of the manuscript, but publication is not guaranteed.
To find out terms and conditions and how to apply go to the NZ Society of Authors website.
This
program is proudly presented by Hachette Australia and New
Zealand in partnership with The New Zealand Society of
Authors (PEN NZ Inc.)
Open for applications from 9 October until midnight 9 November.
