Meat is a bi-monthly showcase of the latest up and coming new artists, illustrators, writers, poets, graphic novelistsand photographers. We are committed to getting new voices heard and ensuring that our readers are served the finest, freshest cuts straight off the bone every other month.

The Central ethos of the magazine is to celebrate the artistic expression of our contributors on a national, and soon international, platform. We aim to get the work submitted noticed not only by the general public, but also by major graphic design studios, publishing houses and production companies.

Matchbox is a poetry object, it comes out every two months. The website can be found at www.matchbox.org.uk

Every issue is sent out in matchbox format, creature-mag recently received the latest issue. Not really knowing what to expect we were excited when the abnormally shaped package turned up on our desk, inside were five matchboxes each carefully decorated and packed with free matches, stickers, strange little doodles and most importantly poetry. A thoroughly good read if we may say so! We will definately be checking out further issues of this highly original and thoroughly satisfying poetry zine / object / art piece... Go to matchbox.org.uk now and get yours!
