Azarin Sadegh
Azarin Sadegh was born in Shahi, a small town near the Caspian Sea. Shortly after the revolution, and during the war with Iraq, she left Iran, studied Computer Science in France and found her old passion for writing in Los Angeles. Since 2007, her work has appeared in print and online, including in the Chicago Sun Times, Iranian.com and Common Boundary: Stories of Immigration. Currently, she is working on her second novel, The Suicide Note. [See her features in iranian.com before 2008 and more recent]
Emerging Voices is a literary fellowship program that aims to provide new writers, who lack access, with the tools they will need to launch a professional writing career. Over the course of the year, each Emerging Voices fellow participates in: a professional mentorship; hosted Q & A evenings with prominent local authors; a series of Master classes focused on genre; and two public readings. The fellowship includes a $1,000 stipend.
The Mentorship Project grew out of PEN USA’s forum “Writing the Immigrant Experience,” held at the Los Angeles Central Library in March 1994, which explored the issues, problems and challenges faced by first and second generation immigrant writers. It was evident from the forum that many of the culturally diverse communities of writers in Southern California have special needs and are often isolated from the literary establishment. In the fall of 1995, PEN USA initiated Emerging Voices as a literary mentorship designed to launch potential professional writers from minority, immigrant and other underserved communities.

I am very pleased and excited for you, as you can imagine. I hope it is only the beginning of great times for you. Enjoy all of it. But also remember that story about the old man whose horse ran away.
The greatest writers plough their own furrows.
Congratulations and Best Wishes

OMG! You cracked me up!
Thank you for the laugh!
Please don't stop writing the funny stuff, though!
LOL!
Azarin, you proved me wrong!
by Multiple Personality Disorder on Tue Nov 09, 2010 10:14 PM PSTWriting depressing stories does pay off. I'm going to stop writing funny stuff and focus on sadness and misery, so maybe one day I would also win something. Maybe a aadams khoroos neshaan.
But until then, congratulations!
excellent - congrats.
