My copy of Mslexia came in the post this morning. I have an advertisement for The Buddha’s Bone in this issue (no. 93), which is the issue for March, April and May 2022. You can see my ad on the second and third photos.

Mslexia is a UK magazine aimed at women who write. It includes info on how to write, self-publish your work, as well as submission calls, events and conferences for writers. As my copy only arrived today, I’m currently reading it with my coffee (Good morning from here in Northern Ireland!) so I will write another review post once I’ve had a chance to read through the whole magazine.

If you want to buy Issue 93 of Mslexia, you can do so here. The timing of my copy arriving coincided nicely with International Women’s Day, which was on Tuesday 8th March, especially given Mslexia is aimed at women writers. However, regardless of whether you’re a woman or not and indeed, whether you’re a writer or not, I’d recommend buying a copy. More and more literary magazines have been going out of print and I’m definitely in favour of supporting or subscribing to those that I can, whenever I can afford it. Hopefully you’re the same. I’d imagine if you’re reading this post, like me, you must be a literary type of person. If you’re a reader, you’ll benefit. If you’re a writer, you’ll benefit. So, it’s win-win, as far as I can advise. At the very least, like myself, you might even be able to blog about it. In any case, I’ll be writing a review post at some point, so stay tuned.
