Calling all teen poets and writers!

Think your writing could be considered "the best of the best"? Enter your work into the Adroit Journal's newest contest for teens! The Adroit Journal was founded by 17-year-old Peter LaBerge (Multiple Scholastic Award winner).

The Adroit Journal is pleased to announce the 2012 Adroit Prizes in Fiction and Verse, two brand new prizes offered by the journal specifically for young writers under the age of 22.  In this way, The Adroit Journal hope to accommodate almost all high school and college students, and we encourage them to send their work (a maximum of three poems submitted separately or one short work of fiction) to us for consideration. All submissions will also be considered for publication in our Summer 2012 issue. For more information on how to submit your work, please visit: http://adroit.submishmash.com/submit.
We strive to receive the absolute best work from emerging young writers in high school and college. Thus, the student with the best work of fiction or verse between the ages of 14 and 21 will be awarded with either The 2012 Adroit Prize in Verse or Fiction!
Results will be posted on our website in early June. The two winners will be offered spots on the journal’s editorial staff for the next reading period, which is this summer.  Runners-up and Honorable Mentions might also receive offers to join the staff at the discretion of the judges.
