Having a Lovely Time In the A3 Review Feb 15
The A3 Review is a magazine that behaves like a map and is created by the people who make Writing Maps. The prose, poetry and artwork in The A3 Review is compiled from the winning entries of a monthly writing contest. Two winners per month, over six months, are then published in the magazine. The A3 Review is published twice a year.
Winning entries make up a shortlist of 12 writers and artists who are then in the running for cash prizes: 1st = £250, 2nd = £150, and 3rd = £75.
The A3 Review launched in September 2014 and is edited by the writer Shaun Levin.
You can order a copy of The A3 Review here.
Everything in The A3 Review is written in response to a themed monthly contest. Word limit is 150. It’s quick and short and intense, and we aim to keep publishing brief and energetic work in a format that’s easy to carry around.
