INCREDIBLE 'GOOD NEWS STORY' FROM PREVIOUS AUCTION:
Mark generously offered a mentorship as part in the March 2024 fundraiser auction. Mark worked closely with his winning mentee, Luke Johnson, on his MS, before sending it on to his own agent, Daniel Pilkington - who promptly signed Luke and got him a contract with Affirm.
And - Luke's debut novel, King Tide, is out in August!
So, get bidding - mentorships with Mark DELIVER. --
