So I was reading a newsletter from Jeff McBride today and one of the subjects he talks about is mentorship.
Having a mentor is helps a lot. It's always good to have someone you can go to for advice, thoughts and insight. Not just someone who can show you tricks, but help you develop yourself.
Well other magic forums have special titles for like elite members of the forums. So I was thinking, why not adapt something like that here, and offer people a chance to partner up with qualified members who could serve as a mentor?
The mentor program could have specific requirements needed to be met before you can apply to be a mentor. Mentors are selected by T11 staff, so to control the quality. Forum members are free to chose from the published list of mentors who they'd want to "work" with.
Perhaps if we can get some of our resident T11 artists to join in, it may be more fun and enlightening for everyone else.
