Booming Ground is UBC’s non-credit Creative Writing program. The Booming Ground mentorship program offers you the chance to work one-on-one with experienced writers in multiple genres. This unique online mentorship allows you to write and receive feedback from anywhere in the world. Six month sessions starting any time between August and November, Booming Ground’s mentorships support the development of a book-length manuscript, full-length screenplay, or stageplay. Offering feedback to writers at all stages in their careers, Booming Ground mentors will take your writing to the next level, whether you’re working on your first draft or the final polish on your manuscript. All mentorships will conclude with a personally-tailored publication package and consultation on next steps for your writing.

These six month mentorships which focus on a producing a book-length body of work cost $500. For those with complete manuscripts already there’s also the popular on-going Manuscript Evaluation service.
