Rituals & Declarations (NB: shameless self-promotion)

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

As some of you who follow me on Twitter will know, I'm doing a 4-issue small-press magazine called Rituals & Declarations (or @RitualsZine on Twitter).

It sells for £6 a copy, and contains articles, art, and fiction.

Issue 1 looks like this:

...and contains this:
  • Navigating the Hill of Dreams: the Significance of Folk Horror in an Age of Ecological Breakdown - by L B Limbrey
  • Bodies of Water - Fiction by Sylvia Warren
  • Acid Renaissance: Albion’s True Standard Advanced - Art by Paul Watson
  • Cunning County by Emily Banting - Fiction by David Southwell, with art by Maria Strutz
  • Bienvenue à Villefranche: Black Spot Season One - Review by David Southwell
  • Cathexis - by Tim Dedopulos
  • Cthulhu Madness - by Phil Hine, with art by Maria Strutz
  • The Demon’s Mistress or the Demon’s Self: The Snake and the Monstrous Feminine - by Maria J Pérez Cuervo
  • O Sunny Hour! Towards the Centenary of the Vine Press - by Justin Hopper
You can order copies online from https://ritualsdeclarations.bigcartel.com/

But wait, there's more. From next week, it will be stocked in Travelling Man in Leeds, Manchester, York, and Newcastle. That's in addition to already being carried in shops in Brighton, London, Berlin, and (across the pond) California, Massachusetts, and Washington. (Full list of stockists here)

Issue 2 is coming out in April and will contain fiction by Jamie Delano (writer of the really good early Hellblazer comics, Dr Who comic, and many more), Sylvia Warren, and David Southwell, plus more art and articles. So you should probably get a copy of issue 1 now, and be ready to order issue 2 in April.
