All final responses have now gone out! ✨

Congratulations & welcome to this year’s Augurian creators—

We’ll share who’s joining us once the ink is dry on our contracts 💜

Canadian and Indigenous Stories!!!

What the hell are we doing, CanLit, if an event celebrating political writing kicks a Black woman who lived through apartheid out for demanding we use our voice, that we speak out for injustice, for fellow writers who are dying for their work? Who are we?

Hey Augurians!

We took a moment to update ALL our contracts with anti-AI language—expect responses out by the end of the week. :)

On the slopes of the valley community, mountain goats are prized higher than anything; for racing, farming, silky hair. Owners of the most infamous goats introduce themselves by their goat's name: 'Billy's mom,' or 'Gruffle's man.' What is your goat known for?

No writing is apolitical. No person is apolitical.

People can never avoid existing in and making choices in society—all political actions.

And everyone, mag editors included, has the right to set boundaries around which politics they want in their space.

One thing I really appreciate about the indie SFF space is the degree to which the writing/reading community know their support can help a market thrive

When I launched Augur, I had minimal notable experience—

but the community saw our vision & made it happen
