Student/Intern Group


Offered each fall and spring, this semester-long initiative supports CLMP Members by providing additional benefits for their internship and student programs. Participants have the opportunity to network with a national cohort of other interns and student workers, receive mentorship from CLMP staff, and attend skill-building sessions on independent publishing.

CLMP Student/Intern Group benefits also include

  • A series of monthly meetups with facilitated conversations and professional advice about working in the literary field
  • A moderated Google Group where participants may post questions, engage in moderated discussions, share resources, and connect with one another
  • Access to the CLMP Student/Intern LinkedIn Group for continued networking, job opportunities, etc. for current participants and alumni
  • Best-practices resources about working at literary magazines and presses
  • Invitations to CLMP Events

Students, interns, and other early career professionals working at CLMP member presses or magazines may apply to participate.

Please contact Chelsea Kern, Programs Director, at [email protected] with questions.

The deadline to register for the Spring 2026 cohort is February 6, 2026. Registrants must be current interns or student workers at a CLMP member publisher.
