We are pleased to announce the official mentor selections for Author Mentor Match Round 9! Like every round before, we had so much talent in the inbox, and it was so hard to choose. Congratulations to everyone selected. If you don’t see your name/book on this list, unfortunately you have not been selected by a mentor.

Many mentors will be sending personalized feedback to those who were not chosen. Please give them a few weeks to do so. However, not all mentees will receive feedback and we kindly ask that you not follow-up with us demanding a mentor response.

If you were not selected, we encourage you to continue to work on your books and submit to a future round. There are new mentors in every round, and mentorship is all about finding the right fit! Every round, mentees are selected who did not make it in previous rounds. Look for Round 10 of AMM next year, in early 2023.
