New Lit on the Block :: Meraki Review

Hey, readers and writers! There’s this incredibly beautifully crafted magazine online with a most seditious editor-in-chief. They’re pirates, on a mission to make teenage voices heard and counted. They sculpt, shape, and help these voices find themselves through writing. It’s a place where ideas run wild, get a bit messy, and then come out as the most brilliant, unapologetic version of themselves. Are you game? Then check out Meraki Review!

Writing is rhapsody, adrenaline, and joy—the tide that rushes against the shores of pain and begins the healing.”

Publishing every four months, Meraki Review features poetry, fiction prose, creative non-fiction, memoirs, prose-poetry hybrids, and artwork online by both teens and adults for an international teenage readership.

Alaspure wants Meraki Review to be “a community where teenagers feel safe to express themselves freely, support one another, and inspire each other to improve. Together, we will form a global platform that shines a spotlight on hidden voices and their galvanizing stories. The word Meraki means to do something you love and are passionate about. That pretty much sums up the ethos of our magazine!”
