Just like that, a decade flies by. It's hard to believe but it's been 10 years since Issue 1 of Firewords was published. To celebrate (and to make some badly needed space on our shelves) we're having a flash sale! 💥 buff.ly/3XKtJle

Campfire is such a great initiative - if you like beautiful literary magazines, get @FirewordsMag right into your inbox, one story/poem at a time!
🔥 Hello! We’re trying something new. Introducing Campfire, our digital serialised offshoot to Firewords. It’s like the regular magazine except the pieces we’re publishing are sent to your email a few at a time, ensuring each story and poem gets its time in the spotlight.

The 1st Campfire email will be sent tonight, so sign up now if you want it. The fact it’s launching on Halloween is not accidental! What better day to kick off our ‘Fear’ themed Issue 16 😱? There are stories from @CatherineOgston & @abairrud2021 and a poem from @LeeStorytelling.

In case you missed it last week, #Firewords15 is out now! Due to rising print costs we’ve had to do a smaller print run than we normally do, so don’t hang around if you want one as it’s likely to sell out soon.
📣 #Firewords15 is finally in our hands! It's full to the brim with the usual eclectic mix of short stories, flash, poetry and illustration. Grab your copy at firewords.co.uk/fifteen 🔥

These rising costs of printing, shipping, storage and, well, everything are making indie publishing pretty tricky right now. This will be our last print edition for a while until we can make the project more self-sustainable. We have ideas in the works though so watch this space.

If you can’t afford a luxury like magazines right now, we totally understand. RTs/spreading the word is a big help for us too! And if you’re struggling with the cost of living crisis and would like a free digital copy just email us at info@firewords.co.uk – no questions asked 🧡
