The Writers’ Trust Mentorship provides support, guidance, and one-on-one instruction to a developing writer from an established writer. The program is sponsored by RBC which aims to support the careers and development of emerging Canadian creatives through mentorship programs, education, and access and exposure to new audiences.

Three mentors are selected by Writers’ Trust, each working in one of the fields of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry. Each mentor selects one mentee from a pool of applicants to work with over a 5-month period. Beyond instruction, mentees will also receive $2,500.
