The issue was designed by Eirian Chapman and features fiction from Ben Jahn, Kris Allison, Eric Hanson, Obelia Modjeska, Neil Boyack, Peter Orner, Garth Risk Hallberg, Natalie Johnson, Paul Mitchell, Karl Smith, Mark Halloran, Keya Mitra & Ryan Crawford. There is also a bumper 50 page graphic fiction section featuring the likes of Walter Newton, Dylan Horrocks, Paul O’Connell, Tim Molloy and Stephanie von Reiswitz. And it all comes with a beautiful wraparound art deco cover from Jordan Clarke. All that for $25, including one tree planted through Eco-Libris.

I really, really want one because this looks like a great mag and a good read. And when my daughter grows up and gets old enough to read stuff like this herself, I will show her these stories and say: ‘Look at what I used to read when you were little. All these now world famous writers were just emerging back then. I was right on the beat, huh?’ And hopefully she will think that I am cool.

I really want one cause I’m always interested in juicy new culture, I’ll go nuts if I’m forced to read another New Yorker story! I wanna know what’s cool down under, and if you give it to me, I’ll share it with all the kids at the high school I work at.

I really, really want one as being a journalist I feed off the bones and carcass of any new media form, with short stories being something I especially love to read and write. I’ve also been into art and drawing since I could pick up a pencil, immersing myself in the late 1980s Spiderman and Phantom comics. You can be safe in the knowledge that I would devour this magazine!

I want one because I’ve yet to be convinced that you guys don’t just shear ship and moan about dingoes…

Really, really…Because the cover is lust inspiring. It makes me want to use the word dame and wear a snappy coat and have witty fast paced arguments. And if just one cover can do that, then a year’s worth of volumes promises many treasures and treats…
