Hello potential mentees,
At this point, you're probably wondering what exactly Wattpairs mentorship challenge is and how it came to be. Last year I spent a lot of time preparing one of my own manuscripts for PitchWars and the entire time I kept thinking to myself,"why isn't this something that happens on Wattpad?"
I didn't end up getting chosen but it was a great experience. An experience that helped build community, challenged me as a writer, and overall reminded me why I loved writing. I wanted to share that feeling with my Wattpad family.
And now here we are. A contest made by writers for writers.
In short, this contest is where chosen mentors from all over the Wattpad community with varying degrees of writer "know-how" [i.e. published authors, editors, wattpad stars, watty winners, wattpad paid writers, Etc.] will select one writer each, read their entire manuscript, and offer suggestions that will help polish it up and have it sparkling for the final showcase at the end of the contest.
