#YA4YA is a platform where aspiring YA authors can get free mentoring from industry professionals. Tweets by @writerShanna. NO 2020 EDITION! ☹️

It is with a heavy heart that I'm announcing #YA4YA will not be running this year.

Thank you for everyone who's played a role in the last years, whether you were a mentor or mentee, applied for a mentorship, or simply retweeted information. It was truly wonderful.

Stay safe. ❤️

We are so sad to see this news. @rachelcaine was a wonderful, kind person with a big heart. As a mentor for the first run of #YA4YA, she'll forever be in our hearts.

Her kindness is what inspired the platform. We will never forget. 💕

@abifeltham I'm so glad it was helpful. ❤️

I might try again next year. I think the world is just burning too much right now, and I can't blame people for not being in the right headspace to mentor.

Real talk: #YA4YA only has a few mentors so far. Not enough to run. If you can, please spread the word. Hoping we can run this year. 😊

I met my #writing mentor and my CPs through #YA4YA in 2018. I cannot express how important it's proven to be for me as a writer. It is an incredible opportunity and I'm so glad to see it moving forward. 🖤🖤🖤

I've thought long and hard about the 2020 edition of #YA4YA, and wanted to cancel. I'm barely reading, am temporarily in a different country, and have started a new job in the midst of a pandemic with colleagues I've never met.

But now, more than ever, we need hope.

@TonyaPreece 😊😊 let's hope we get enough mentors, but completely appreciate if people aren't in the right headspace for it.
