Hello to our lovely followers and contributors ❤
We are very aware that we've been quiet over the past few months, and we just wanted to let you know that issue twelve IS coming. Running a volunteer magazine means that sometimes life gets in the way. Our final print of nawr 12 was delayed, and we are really frustrated to share that this month, our shipment of nawr has been consistently delayed. We are still waiting for it to arrive (and getting those messages which I'm sure you're all equally as familiar with and frustrated by - where is our parcel?!).
Issue twelve is on its way. We are hoping to have it online in the next fortnight-3 weeks, and are so frustrated that we cannot be more specific, or speedy than this. Please know all of us are using all the time we have around our commitments to get this to you, and we really care about publishing your work, and delivering you quality work and writing from Wales.
Apologies again, and we hope you understand❤.
Diolch,
Team Nawr❤

Nos galan gaeaf hapus! The nawr team have been hibernating by designing the magazine, we are very excited to provide comfort this Autumn season through art and creativity. We’re focusing on how art can be comforting during these colder months, especially going on long walks, listening to comforting music, spending time in nature. We can’t wait for you to see the issue! 🍃 🧣

Sincerely
Nawr Team

say it loud, say it clear!
We are horrified at the violence aimed at Muslim, immigrant and refugee communities in the past week. We urge you to use your voice, reach out to your vulnerable friends, and make our hopeful majority heard in the face of a violent, hateful minority. ❤️❤️❤️

🌅NEW THEME: DEFFRO/AWAKEN 🌅
nawr is awaking from a slumber; opening our eyes and looking around to take stock of where we now stand. This new, first print issue to feature the work of our contributors , is a fresh start, but also is the culmination of those dreams we have kept note of in the night.
To ‘awaken’ is to stir, to be grounded by realisation. The world is a tumultuous and frightening place to live right now, but it is also stirring so many of us to activism; we have been awakened to injustice, to mobilise, to share thought. These moments of awakening reflect and inform our own personal moments of awakening throughout our lives. On journeys of self-exploration, the experiences we have sometimes culminate in one, final moment of awakening.
For this issue, we are looking for work responding to the theme of ‘deffo/awaken’. What is it to be awoken? What world do we want to wake up to in the morning? What moments of awakening have you experienced? Is there something within you longing to be awoken; or a person you need to wake up?
As always we welcome any and all creative responses to our theme. We accept submissions of poetry, short stories (500-800 words), philosophy/creative critical essays (500-800 words), art and photography based around this theme. Submissions can be sent to [email protected] with subject line [YOUR NAME/CATEGORY/TITLE OF PIECE]. You must include your name and location along with your submission: we are looking for work from Welsh and Wales-based creatives. Please see our submissions highlight on Instagram for more details of How to Submit. 🌅Submissions close 15/09/24.🌅

nawr te, where have we been?!
well - all over!! Anna has been prepping for a MAMMOTH hike in July; Martha FINALLY handed in her PhD and started a new job; Beth’s been travelling around Europe and Alice has been up to Anglesey and back to Mach again for cultural shows. and in between, we’ve all been out in nature, in Snowdonia, Machynlleth, and the Preselis.
Basically - it’s been a time of huge change and movement and we’re being gentle with ourselves! now it’s time to get back together and get things moving, ready for our first contributor-oriented print edition. we’ll keep you up to date with our plans for it, but in the meantime please do buy or share our print copies - there are still some available in the link in our bio!
Cariad mawr ❤️

✨NAWR IN PRINT✨AVAILABLE 8TH APRIL✨
It's finally here! We are so excited to bring you nawr's first venture into print - issue 11: four years.
This issue is a little different from nawr's usual offerings. We decided that before we handled our contributor's work, we wanted to reflect on where we've come from and the work we've produced over the past four years, as well as writing about some of our favourite pieces featured in our online issues. The result is 'four years', a reflective zine written by co-editors Anna and Martha with a contribution from our resident music blogger, Jordan. The issue is printed on high-quality recycled paper and is beautifully designed by Anja Quinn and Beth McAulay.
A link to purchase the magazine from our online store is in our bio, and the issues will be available to buy on the 8th of April. Please note that this is a LIMITED RUN of just fifty copies. We anticipate quite a bit of interest but would like to time to take stock of resources and capacity - we've always moved slowly, but intentionally! ❤
Thank you so much for your patience and excitement with this project. We are genuinely so, so excited to share this zine with you, and we hope you enjoy reading our reflections on these four years - we couldn't have done it without you. ❤

💕Issue 6 has arrived!💕 Lots of love for this issue, with some gorgeous poetry, photography, philosophy and even some lush handicrafts. Thanks again to all of our wonderful contributers for making this issue what it is. Find the link in our bio! We owe our stunning covers to Rubén Lorca - read more about their stunning artworks inspired by self-love after injury in this issue. Our featured artist in this issue is Efa Blosse-Mason, who chats via email with Anna and Jamie about their animated short film, Leaf Boat- a tale of love, risk and acceptance. A special thank you to Efa for providing their responses in Welsh too! We're also super excited to be publishing something a little bit different from our culture writer, Millie Bethel, this time around. We hope you love it as much as we do. As always, our designer Anja Quinn has pulled it out the bag again. Diolch yn fawn to her for her wonderful efforts. If you're interested in being a nawr contributer keep an eye on our social media, or drop an email to [email protected] and ask to be added to our mailing list. Finally, there's a lot in the pipeline for nawr over the next few months. Because of this, there won't be another issue of nawr this year, but keep an eye out for news about future issues and lots more! Exciting times!!! Mawr, Martha, Jamie and Anna ❤💛💚💙
