Application-based manuscript guidance.

Mentorship is for writers with a clear project, draft, or writing goal that needs sustained attention. Talty Literary mentorships may be led by Morgan Talty or carefully matched faculty depending on project fit, availability, and scope.

Possible Mentorship Paths

  • Manuscript consultation: a focused read and conversation around a defined excerpt or project problem.
  • 3-month mentorship: a contained path for writers who need structure, craft attention, and revision priorities.
  • 6-month mentorship: sustained work on a larger manuscript, project arc, or revision plan.
  • Full-manuscript path: custom scope for writers with a vetted book-length project ready for advanced guidance.

How It Works

Mentorship should begin with an application or consultation so the writer, instructor, schedule, expectations, and payment path are clear before work begins.
