Magnificent Seven
      
After three years and seven issues, your humble editor
has decided it's time for a break and is now on an extended
sabbatical for an indefinite period. Thank you to the
many writers and readers from across the globe who've been
involved in this fascinating journey.
Issues Five and
Six are still on
sale, with prices cut from £4 to £2
(UK) / from £5 to £3 (Overseas). They're limited
editions so get them while you can. And of course, don't forget Issue
Seven. It's a beauty; this is ending on a high
note.
Is this the end? Possibly – but never say never. Join the
eMailing list
to be kept abreast of future developments, or or visit the

"A magical
little magazine, trying something completely
original" the Guardian
"Definitely collectable" the Rialto
"One of the most creatively stimulating 'zine
concepts I've come across in a long, long time."
Fourth Horseman Press
"We enjoyed and then
puzzled over and then enjoyed the first issue. This is a
magazine made to examine and handle." Literary Magazine Review
"Exactly the
kind of thing that should appeal to true
bibliophiles." LauraHird.com |
the Single Line Quarterly
the Single Line Quarterly
is a fictitious journal of literary works one line in length.
Some might say the "single line" genre satirizes abbreviated
forms such as the haiku and the orphan leaf. Others
might say it's a serious form capable of subtlety, beauty
and insight....
