RAMP 2021 Mentees
Thank you so much to everyone who applied for the inaugural year of RWA’s Romance Author Mentorship Program! We received a large number of amazing applications, and the main comment from all of our mentors was “this was such a difficult decision!”
Applying for programs like this is an act of courage and optimism, and while sadly not every applicant could be paired with a mentor, we were so excited to see the overwhelming number of writers pursuing their goals and passions. We hope to continue to grow RAMP and implement other programs designed to support you in your writing journey.
Congratulations to all who were selected! We can't wait to see the magic you and your mentor produce!
