Become a Pseudo-Subscriber

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.
