If you'reattending @bloodyscotland.bsky.social you might see a little magazine circulating that looks like this. It's by Write Club, a Stirling based writers' group. Do have a look. All feedback appreciated.

Btw, while you're up in Stirling for Bloody Scotland, you might see this. If so, it's a wee mag of short stories by our writing group.
If you have time for a look, any comment will be appreciated.
Even 'it's shite' will be counted as an endorsement.

Just finished this by @richycraven.bsky.social . Thoroughly recommended. Irish ghostly tragi-comedy, with two of the funniest death scenes* I've read in ages.
