The Weekly LitMag (Issue #11)
Curated by me; produced by all of you!
Hi, everyone!
Returning from the warmly welcomed Issue #10, The Weekly LitMag is now back with Issue #11!
For those who have found this platform, TWLM focuses on highlighting pieces across Substack. We take pride in what you write - whether spotlighted or highlighted! As long as you have a voice in your works, you can be damn sure you might have a chance!
Some housekeeping stuff:
To follow, subscribe to, or read other contributors, please go to “Contributors’ Notes” (CN) and “Shortlisted” and CLICK ON THEIR NAMES, not their handles
For some pieces, there are only excerpts from the original piece - please click on the author names (in the CN) to read the full story
We’ve only included the crux of your works, so if you have any particular intros, we’ve removed them just for readability reasons - so sorry!
If we’ve missed out on anything, please let us know! <3
Without further ado, please:
Please give a warm welcome to our Issue #11 contributors:
Aditi Dhapola , Andrea (Andy) Curran 🌄 , Arya Houeto , Cillian O'Reilly , Equinox , Irfan , Jessie Laverton , Khushboo 🌸 , kyle duncan , Laura B , Liam Saube , Pablo Djehuty , POP CULTURE ARCHIVES , robenia , taylor jean , Vara Valen
Such brilliant pieces, so moving, so sharp, so incisive - we LOVED it! Thank you very much for entrusting your works to us!
Fun fact of the day: A Banana’s Archive just finished volunteering at a cat shelter! How fun is that? I lowkey wished I could stop working and just play with cats every day…
Please also show your support to our fellow contributors, who this time round, were only shortlisted. Remember: there’s no guarantee that you’ll always get spotlighted, so always be nice to other authors~!
B.R. Night , C. A. , Doug Hanau , Gary L Taylor , Griffin , Kayleigh Thorpe , Rhian Davies , Ricky Champagne , S. U. Haq , s.k sterliing , Travis Malone , When I Come Up for Air 🐳
