WRITERS ABROAD MAGAZINE

Editorial by Jo Lamb
Welcome to our third issue of Writers Abroad Magazine. As usual it is packed with
something for everyone: poetry, fiction, articles, interviews and lots more.
However, this has been a sad time for Writers Abroad. In early June, two of our
members died within days of each other. Mary had been struggling with illness on
and off for some time but was a feisty lady in her ninth decade! Jany had not been ill
for long and it was a shock when we learnt of both their deaths. Mary and Jany were
dedicated WA members and supplied us with lots of humour and advice. We
remember them both here in the magazine and will be dedicating this year’s
Anthology, Kaleidoscope, to them both.
WA members as well as writing content for this publication have been busy reading,
editing and proofing submissions for Kaleidoscope. We have selected a wonderful
mixture of flash fiction, poetry and short stories to keep you entertained and at the
same time raise money for our chosen charity, Room to Read. Kaleidoscope will be
published as a paperback on Monday 12 October 2015.
Sign up here for a reminder and details of where to buy.
We hope you enjoy reading our magazine and would be grateful if you leave us
some feedback on your experience so we can continue to improve it. All those who
complete our short survey will be entered into a prize draw for a free e-copy of our
Anthology! Click on WA Mag Feedback at the end of the magazine.

Best Wishes
Jo
