Why You Should Submit to Camas: The Nature of the West

By Lauren Smith @AlbatrossTales

University of Montana literary magazine Camas



6 reasons why you should submit to Camas:

1. Because it’s an awesome literary magazine put out by the Environmental Studies grad department at the University of Montana. (The fact that I’m in the program and very involved with the magazine does not at all influence the previous statement). 

2. Because I’m the editor of the non-fiction board, which means that I get to read every piece of non-fiction that is submitted and pass judgment. (I’m not opposed to bribes “generous donations,” especially of baked goods, in case you were wondering. Or coffee. Caffeinated beverages are also good. Hey, I’m a grad student and a field biologist. I have to eat somehow). 

3. Because we’re looking for submissions of non-fiction, fiction, poetry, book reviews, art, and photography.

4. Because here is an article about Camas in the Missoulian (a local Montana paper):

Environmental Studies Program’s Camas magazine has changed over 22 years, but still going strong

5. Because you still have plenty of time! We are accepting submissions for the Winter 2014 issue until October 15th, 2014.

6. Because we don’t have a theme for this issue, so Anything Goes!

Not really. I just wanted an excuse to put this clip in:


 

We do ask that you consider our mission statement in deciding what pieces would be a good fit:

Camas Magazine cultivates a community of writers and artists dedicated to promoting ecological and cultural diversity and resilience in the American West.
