Mentor for YWS? Or for something else? If you need a helper person for your writing or just general YWS stuff, I'll help :)
I am nothing
but a mouthful of 'sorry's, half-hearted
apologies that roll of my tongue, smoothquick, like 'r's
or maybe like pocket candy
that's just a bit too sweet.

Oh, dear. I know there used to be a thread with all us mentors on it, now I just have to find the darn thing - ha! Is this what you had in mind? We're technically a (semi)defunct group right now, but anyone who's still active on that list would most likely be happy to help out a bit! Your best bet is anyone who's in green/you see posting. Us in yellow/orange/gold (also known as DMs) tend to have much less time, so in general while we can help with the site itself, we don't always have much time to critique. If you want solely help with writing and have posted something in the genre you want help in, ask someone who's reviewed for you if they can help! If that fails, er... just ask me! If you have a specific interest (ie, working YWS, poetry, historical fiction, etc.), tell me via PM, and I can see if I can help hook you up with someone who is willing and able to mentor you!

If I've completely missed the point of what you're looking for, tell me so! Though I hope I've been at least a little bit helpful.

Depending on what you write, I may be able to give you a hand.

If you're big into poetry, then you'd be better off under Kamas's wing, but if you write more fiction I'd be happy to help you however I could. ;) Although I'm not technically on the Mentor List.
"Let's eat, Grandma!" as opposed to "Let's eat Grandma!": punctuation saves lives.

Then you probably want to fly alongside with Evi. (Thanks for that by the way Evisters ^^)

And if you're looking for a nice dark twist to something, I'd be happy to help.

Really, as you can see, you can ask anyone on this site and they'll help you out the best they can. We're all writers here no? ;D
