Cadaverine Magazine
a little bit about us www.thecadaverine.com
CADAVERINE MAGAZINE
"The Cadaverine is a new Arts Council funded magazine based in Leeds. We believe the UK is blessed with a talented generation of young writers. Yet, talented as they are, much of their work is left unseen and unattainable. We believe this region benefits from an active, young and eager readership. Our purpose is to unite these isolated groups –– to bring together a new readership with emerging authors.
This month we have exclusive interviews with Raw Shark Text author Steven Hall, poet, Ian McMillan, novelist, Ray French and New Ventures Winner, Nicholas Hogg. Aswell as new fiction and poetry from our regions most exciting writers.
The Cadaverine is making links with writing magazines, the Arts Council, Universities and the digital community. We want to develop creative partnerships; to bring young writing to a wider audience. We believe literature is news that stays news. We believe our writers are its authors." |

Well fuckity-fuck. All looked very interesting until I saw you have an upper age limit of 25. Good for them, less for me. I'm too old. Oh well... congratulations on securing arts council funding. Good luck with it.
You don't say anywhere whether you're a print or purely online mag, and what your pay rates (if you pay) are.

I agree Mike.....fuckity fuck indeed. At 36 I'm over-the-hill too. Where should the decrepit writers go then for support and funding, you know, I mean apart from the pub?

I'm lazy, so I freely adapted Loulou's reply rather than writing one of my own.

Your royalty check's in the post, Loulou.

Huh. All's well until I sign in and find out that I'm over the hill, too.
Maybe we should start a club.

I am still in my 20's and I am also too old....
I haven't check it out, but why would you put an age limit on submissions?

The first paragraph pretty much explains why they only want young writers...
