(Note: I'm not sure if this counts for advertising or no, but it is a legit mentor request. Mods, feel free to move or delete if I posted in the wrong place.)
Actually, it's more than one teen and young adult writer seeking a mentor. Try dozens.
Elisabeth Wilhelm, editor of Absynthe Muse (http://www.absynthemuse.com), an online young adult and teen writing community, has double-teamed with Hope Clark, editor of FundsforWriters.com (http://www.fundsforwriters.com) to create a unique, free mentoring program that connects teen and young adult writers ages 13 to 22 with experienced adult writers. However, the majority of the population under the legal drinking age love to write sci-fi, fantasy, and horror, genres that we're having trouble covering on the mentor end. These teeming masses of highly intelligent, motivated, and talented young writers have no one they can be matched up to ("Hey Billy, I know you wanted a fantasy mentor, but I stuck you with this guy who really knows his way around technical writing!"). Please consider spreading good karma and consider applying for a position as mentor, and in the words of a teenager, represent!
You can learn about the mentoring program here:

Apply here for mentor:

If you can't do this for one reason or another, consider passing on the message to a writer friend who can.
if you've got any questions don't hesitate to contact either Elisabeth
([email protected]) or Hope ([email protected]).
Or post on this thread.
Thanks for your big heart.
