S'mae Cymru!,

We're currently gathering material for SADWRN, an international new polyglot zine on poetry, speculative fiction/general speculation and comics, that will be published world and webwide around
February.

Right now we're looking for your bright poetry (yes, even in cynghanedd!) to tickle and illuminate our minds. We already count with poetry in English and Welsh, as well as with interviews with Les U. Knight (founder of the
VHEMT, http://www.vhemt.org/), J.L. Pardo (philosopher and Spanish translator of Guy Debord's 'La societé du spectacle') and José Carlos Fernandes (http://jcfernandes.carbonmade.com/), texts by Weird Fiction (http://weird-fiction.net/) and more.

Feel free to submit your bold distilled verse (preferably in
English, Welsh, Spanish or Greek) to alvaromielgogallego@hotmail.com, or
contact me here on WMZ. Hwyl bawb!

I'm running a zine table at 'A Fashionable A'Fayre' tomorrow - a new indie & craft mini market at LePub, Newport. Open from 12-5 with a DJ, open bar, vegan cookies from Mixed Up Mongrel and vintage & handmade goodies from Tinker's Infinity, Dirty Goods, Motel and many more. Free entry!

From a city in which art and creativity amount to little more than tumbleweed, comes Buys You Chips (and shags you don' I?); a pigeon-encrusted, collaborative zine of photography, biography, poetry and observation inspired by life in Newport. Available now from Diverse Records on Charles Street for less than the cost of a dirty burger and a bottle of pop.

More info here and sneak peeks here.
