Excellent coverage of genres, news and publishing opportunities. Thankyou! Reviewed 13 January 2021

I love this magazine, and being in New Zealand find my access can be restricted. So finding it available through this site made my year last year. It's helpful, and being an early career writer, has helped in developing my craft and finding the right contacts.
So thank you!

I really like writing magazine. The only downfall is the old fashioned layout - it looks like a magazine from 15 years ago. Perhaps this shouldn't matter but when attracting creative types it may well do. The content is great

You seem to really care about making your readers better writers. And your articles always seem to answer the questions I have, or haven't even thought about - but should have! It seems like you want to create a writing community, and you are doing so. Reviewed 29 May 2020
