How are magazines meant to survive? I know many of us can't afford to subscribe to the magazines that underpin our literary ecosystem as much as we value them, but if you can, do. Right now, I can, so I'm following David Morley FRSL's lead and subscribing to Butcher's Dog Publishing.

It's true, this poetry is a bit fiery. I'm so grateful for the existence of Fly on the Wall Press, a truly independent publisher supporting new voices. Let's keep the poetry door open. by supporting small presses 💗
