It's YWLJ time again! Young Writers Literary Journal 2015

Are you going to submit something (you should)? Or, if you're old like me and can't submit, are you going to apply for an editor (you should)?

Methinks yes. I don't have time to be an editor, but I might submit something.

I would love to, but I don't think I could write something worthy of publication.
Are you living or simply existing?

@AttackOfTheFlash please don't let the what-ifs stop you! The whole thing about this that makes it so lovely is that it's a collection of *YWS* stories and poetry, not professionals! So I say you have the best chances in the world! Everyone does!

:D

(Seriously you should totally submit something)

I'm ooooooold :P

(which means everyone who's not too old really should submit something, because srsly, I'm kind of jealous that I can't)

What is this, Thing? This, this, "Lit Journal"?

Oh, I think I know what it is. Is that the book of stories and poems that gets published every year?

I might consider it. Maybe.

I shall submit a short story, but I have also applied (and have been accepted! :D ) to be an editor.

Speaking of which, who are the thirteen who chose the third option? I'd like to know who the other editors are.

I know I'm going to submit at least a poem. I'd like to give the short story a shot, too, but my prose skills are a little rusty. We shall see!

My vote doesn't still count, does it?

It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, very small.
