Adroit journal mentorship 2024

anyone else applying? ive heard this program is crazzyyyy selective and it’s due tmr… good luck everyone

they pushed their deadline back a week. not sure if i’ll apply though

thank god they did that i was going to rush it all in one night HAHA good luck if you do end up applying!

the deadline is April 7th. you should apply. there’s no fee :person_shrugging:

What makes Adroit so selective? Apologies for my ignorance, but I’m a parent who just started guiding my HS sophomore through the process of applying to summer writing workshops, and heard that Adroit is very selective which surprises me because and it’s online! Is it engaging and worthwhile? My son told me that he’s not interested in online programs, but he may reconsider if it is very worthwhile. I hope students who did Adroit will chime in and provide feedback.

accepted !!!

CONGRATS! you must be an amazing writer, I think I’ve also seen you in the scholastic writing chat, and if that was you, man, 11 gold keys is INSANE!!! if you don’t mind me asking, what category do you usually write in, and what did you apply to adroit in? would u be open to sharing anything that you wrote :slight_smile: if not totally fine!

THANKS SM ive seen u in so many of the writing threads too !! the hs literary community is honestly such a small world im so happy to meet other teen writers. I WAS SHOCKED TOO W THE GOLD KEYS last yr i only got 1 silver, lowk scared for nationals tho lmao. it would be embarassing if none of the entries won a medal- congrats on scholastic to u too.

i mainly write poetry ! strangely for scholastic a lot of my fiction won so i’m thinking of exploring that too. for adroit i was accepted for poetry. wbu? do u write more fiction, cnf, or poetry? and yep i’d be happy to share my writing sample, i’ll dm it to you rn

SUPER LATE BUT CONGRATSSS! could you send me your writing sample as well if youd like to? id love to see your adroit application as im thinking of applying in the next couple years for similar programs!! just curious- are you a senior or junior in hs? if so im really looking to see how to develop my writing by looking at talented writers with similar interests as mine.
