HOT TIP: This is a very cool work opportunity for a teen interested in writing, media and publishing. If you lean into it, it could lead to a really enriching experience. It’s hard for teens to find job, especially ones that have substance. This could lead to other jobs, and to a really solid recommendation from someone who we’re going to assume - as the editor of a literary magazine - is a pretty good writer!
