Join us for the 2024 QWF Mentorship Reading!

For four months, seven emerging writers have worked to hone their craft through the QWF Mentorship Program. Each has received one-on-one guidance from a professional writing mentor to help them transition to the next stage of their careers. Now, their journey culminates in a public reading where each mentee will present an excerpt from their work in progress.

This year’s cohort features:

Raphaëlle Aubin, mentored by Su J. Sokol in Fiction
River Lee, mentored by Chris DiRaddo in Fiction
Megan Hunt, mentored by Alexandria Haber in Playwriting
Emily Gaudet, mentored by Sarah Wolfson in Poetry
Santiago Eastman Herrera, mentored by Raquel Rivera in Young Adult Literature (Mairuth Sarsfield Mentorship)

Emira Tufo, mentored by Daniel Allen Cox in Non-Fiction*

*Emira will not be able to join but has arranged for a friend to read her work on her behalf.

Buy your tickets now on Eventbrite. Tickets will also be available at the door by cash or e-transfer.

Open to the public, so invite your friends and family!
