Common Measure - Common Measure Volume 1 is out!
Dear subscriber, Common Measure Volume 1 has been published! This is a print-only magazine of writing and art that includes some of the best writers and artists working right now. That sounds bold to say but I am genuinely extremely lucky with who agreed to be in this magazine. Copies of Vol. 1 are available for purchase for $25 + shipping. Email commonmeasurepress@gmail.com to start your order! (You can also just reply to this email if you’re seeing this in your inbox!) We’re doing everything by hand this week, but we’re also working on getting a website set up where you can buy it (hopefully done this weekend). If that’s your comfort level, I get it, and I’ll write to you again when the site is live! In the meantime, if you’d like to learn more about the process behind the product, I made this video with Eleanor Lindsay who was the proofreader for the magazine. I really hope you’ll pick up a copy or two! —Torben |
