Mike Gauyo, Blackboywrites and the importance of mentorship in the community!

Hello! I’m fairly new here, still trying to figure out the lay of the land, but wanted to express how incredible programs like the Black Boy & Black Girl Writes Mentorship program are! So much of my first year post MFA has been randomly submitting to festivals and paying extra for feedback with little to no guidance. An industry that is very much “Who do you know?” To have Mike and others reach out and give people the chance to connect with each other and learn from the best means so much to me. Sorry for the ramble but needed to express my gratitude!

Congratulations on your success! Nothing but UP from here!
