Irish Writers Centre: 2025 National Mentoring Programme
Deadline: Sun 2 Mar 2025
The National Mentoring Programme is an opportunity open to all writers over the age of 18 across the island of Ireland to receive sustained creative and professional mentoring from an established Irish writer of their choosing.
A minimum of 35 mentoring relationships are on offer every year as part of the Irish Writers Centre National Mentoring Programme.
The opportunity is available to writers of:
Fiction
Creative non-fiction
Children’s / Young Adult fiction
Poetry
Writers from all thirty-two counties are eligible to apply.
Selected mentees get the opportunity to choose the writer they work with from our growing panel of experienced, professional writers (subject to availability). Each mentorship consists of three meetings with an experienced writer over a period of approximately 6–8 months. The mentor reads up to 10,000 words / 180 lines of poetry in advance and will give creative feedback at each meeting. They may also provide professional information and advice.
