  Submission Guidelines
 
The editors of The Claremont Review are looking to publish first class poetry, short stories and short plays by young adult writers (aged 13-19) anywhere in the English speaking world.
 
What are we looking for?
 

We publish anything from traditional to post modern, but with a preference for works that reveal something of the human condition.

We strongly urge contributors to read back issues of The Claremont Review.
That is the best way for you to learn what we are looking for.

 
What we are NOT looking for:
 

Science Fiction, Fantasy, Romance, most rhyming poetry.

Your first draft of anything.

Previously published work.

 
How do I submit?
 
  • All work submitted should be neatly typed and carefully edited with the name of the author at the top of each page.

  • Fiction should be double-spaced and poems should be on separate pages.

  • Include a cover page with your name, address, phone number, email address and a brief BIO.

  • All submissions must be accompanied by a self-addressed, stamped envelope or they cannot be returned.

  • Submissions from outside Canada (including the USA!) must include either International Reply Coupons or Canadian stamps. American postage is not valid in Canada. IRCs should be at least available to order from your local post office, though they may not keep them in stock. We have heard that some US postal outlets claim not to sell them at all. Our understanding is that this is wrong: selling IRCs is an international obligation. Here is a link to the USPS website.

  • Response to your work will be given in four to eight weeks, not including the months of July and August.
 
What is my reward?
 
Contributors who are published in The Claremont Review will receive one perfect bound copy of the magazine. We regret we are unable to reward our artists monetarily at this time. Your biggest reward will be that you have become a published writer! All work submitted (except for contest entries) will receive a personal response.
