Workers Write! is published once a year in
April.
Because we are an annual publication, and because
we don't have a set number of pages per issue, we don't believe
in asking someone to pay us a "subscription rate," especially
if you have to wait eight months for it to arrive.
So, here's what we'd like to do. If you are interested
in purchasing future issues, send your e-mail address to: ps
[at] workerswritejournal [dot] com.
We will collect the addresses, and about two weeks
before publication, we'll drop you a courtesy note.
Here's the bonus: If your name is on our pseudo-subscribers
list and you buy the current issue of Workers Write!, we will send
you, free of charge, the most recent copy in our Overtime
chapbook series.
This deal is only available to our pseudo-subscribers.
Also, we will not sell, lease, or give away your
name, address, or e-mail to anyone. We will not spam you with other
offers. The only time you will hear from us is when the next issue
is available. So sign up today.
