The Claremont Review is a magazine that showcases inspiring young adult writers, aged 13-19. We publish poetry, fiction, drama and art, twice a year, spring and fall. If you are interested in submitting your work check out our submission guidelines.
We strongly encourage students, teachers and libraries to subscribe to this tremendous resource and critical venue for young writers to voice their talent.
Twenty years is a long time:
in a marriage, a career, a life.
It's certainly a long time to commit
to any one thing
with passion, imagination and loyalty.
For some, this kind of devotion
borders on lunacy,
given the lack of conventional rewards
such as money and fame.
Luckily, these weren't the editors
first considerations
when they started this project.
Young writers were.
And in these past twenty years,
many teenage poets, story tellers and artists
have appeared on and between the covers
of The Claremont Review,
too many to mention.
Sometimes, just doing what you set out to do
is reward enough.
