Have you ever read an issue of One Story and thought it might be a good story to include in a creative writing lesson? Now, thanks to The Council of Literary Magazines and Presses’ (CLMP) Lit Mag Adoption Program for Creative Writing Courses, you can adopt One Story for your classroom and give your students each a subscription at the lowest rate we’ve ever offered!

What’s more, if you adopt One Story for the semester, you’ll not only get a free desk copy for yourself, but a senior editor will also participate in a virtual (or in person, if the class is being held in the NYC area) meeting with your class. During this meeting, we’ll discuss the history of One Story, the current literary landscape, and the submissions process, allowing students to better understand the literary publishing environment.

You can adopt magazines for Fall 2010 courses on the CLMP Lit Mag Adoption Program website now. Once you adopt One Story, you’ll receive log-in information for your students to order their discounted subscriptions through the CLMP website.

If you have questions about the program, feel free to contact CLMP’s Programs Director, Jamie Schwartz, or One Story’s Managing Editor, Tanya Rey.

One Story is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit magazine that features one great short story mailed to subscribers every three weeks.
