The Nevada region of SCBWI has been offering a mentor program for the past couple years, matching pre-published or lightly-published members with more established children's book creators. The program is open to "mentees" from other regions, including ours, who are willing and able to travel to Nevada for in-person meetings with their mentors.
December 1, 2008 is the postmark deadline for applications, and the 2009 mentors are: Esther Hershenhorn, Yuyi Morales, Laurent Linn, Ellen Hopkins, Lynda Sandoval, Terri Farley, and Susan Hart Lindquist.
