Welcome to Graft: the Multilingual Review of Claremont, a multilingual literary magazine where language itself takes root and thrives. We invite submissions that celebrate linguistic diversity, including creative writing in non-English or heritage languages, reflections on language and culture, and essays on linguistics from anyone across the 7Cs. By submitting this form, you are submitting for both 0th print issue (due Nov 15) and website (rolling submission with no due date).
For 0th issue (or if you submit before we post 1st issue poster, which will be in late January), there is no submission guideline as we want to experiment with it first. You can submitted up to three pieces (for poetry, less than 4 poems will be counted as one piece). Every genre and theme is welcomed. After you have submitted, you'll be contacted with translation editor of your language and content editor if they make changes in your work. If you want to get contact with your editor first or have any general questions, email Bowen (bxvg2025@mymail [dot] pomona [dot] edu) or Zena (zadi2024@mymail [dot] pomona [dot] edu) for more details.
We try to publish every submission on our coming website, and will only notify you when we have published or denied your publication. We will notify about your acceptance status for print issue within a week after the due date.
