I received this in my inbox not too long ago:

YARN, a new online literary magazine for young adult readers, is seeking fiction, poetry, and essays for its debut issue. Writing should be of special interest for 14 – 18 year old readers but can be written by writers of any age or background. Submissions by teens are especially encouraged. YARN’s mission is to publish the highest quality creative writing for everyone who enjoys young adult lit. Published quarterly, YARN will feature short fiction and creative essays, poetry, and an author interview. Our interactive sections will allow for comments on stories as well as reviews of recent young adult books. We distinguish ourselves from other teen lit magazines by seeking to discover new teen writers and publish them alongside established writers of the young adult genre. Issue 1 will go live in Winter 2010, but a little taste of our site is currently available at www.yareview.net (where you can also find our submission guidelines).

If anyone is interested in breaking into the young adult genre, this would be a good place to start. If you’ve never considered writing young adult literature before, maybe you should give yourself the challenge. I double dog dare you. Don’t make me bump it up to triple.
