Each 16-week, one-semester Mentorship offers beginning or advanced writers the opportunity to work on a writing project of choice under the guidance of one of MIU’s highly credentialed mentors.

The Advanced Creative Writing Mentorship in creative non-fiction offers full immersion in the craft and technique of writing nonfiction. The Mentorship is tailored to each student’s specific needs and may emphasize flash nonfiction, personal essay, and/or memoir.
