<p style="margin-bottom:0in;font-family:georgia,serif">We're proud to announce the release of
<a href="http://crate.ucr.edu/buy-crate/"><b>CRATE, Vol. 8</b></a>, the graduate literary magazine based at the University
of California, Riverside. We've always been a fan of writing that
is fresh, genuine and unafraid, which we believe to have collected in
our latest volume. Because we're located in Riverside, California,
our magazine has always felt a certain kinship with pieces that
pertain to California, and desert living, but in this volume, we're
honored to showcase work from a variety of writers and locales. <br></p>
