The Latinx in Publishing Writers Mentorship Program is a volunteer-based initiative that offers the opportunity for unpublished and/or unagented writers who identify as Latinx (mentees) to strengthen their craft, gain first-hand industry knowledge, and expand their professional connections through work with experienced published authors (mentors).
In case you missed it, LxP streamed a live reading on November 18th, 2020, with several members of our inaugural class of mentees. They have been working hard during a very tough year for everyone, with incredible results. Agents and publishers, take note! You can view the reading here:
