Short description

It’s birthday party time here at WWJ Towers, and in a reversal of the norm, we’re giving you a present. 50,000 presents, actually, for that’s the record number of words this issue contains. It’s our biggest, bestest, magnificentest issue yet, and oh, what treats you have in store.

Extended description

A one, a two, a one two three four – Happy Birthday to us, happy birthday to us, happy birthday dear UUUUSSS, happy birthday to us!

It’s a miracle, a mystery, a conundrum of epic proportions. How the hell did a wee online magazine like WWJ get to be two years old? We’ll tell you for how – by being tireless in our pursuit of high quality, exclusive content; by snaring interviews, advice and articles from the top names in the writing world; by nurturing an extraordinarily talented bunch of regular contributors. And also by having a laugh, mucking about and generally getting drunk and silly. That’s how. Easy.

Yep, it’s birthday party time here at WWJ Towers, and in a reversal of the norm, we’re giving you a present. 50,000 presents, actually, for that’s the record number of words this issue contains. It’s our biggest, bestest, magnificentest issue yet, and oh, what treats you have in store.
We start by interviewing an author who’s almost as famous for not giving interviews as he is for his novels – Paolo Coelho. The 100million selling Alchemist and Aleph author talks exclusively about his life, work and philosophy and makes a triumphantly fitting cover star for our World Literature themed issue.
But that’s not all, oh no. We have the story of a play that’s been performed only once in the twenty years since it was written; Catriona Troth explores the Well of Lost Libraries; the Scottish idiot goes back to the Wigtown Book Festival for the third year running; we announce the longlist of winners for our £500 Critique Comp Cornerstones; Derek ruminates on the YA bandwagon; Dan Holloway dives into the world of literary blogs; Sarah Bower gives sage advice on scene setting and description and Anne Stormont takes us on a tour of the wonderful and varied world of literature.
There’s also all the usual hijinks and shenanigans we know you love us for, plus some lovely birthday messages from stars of the mag past and present. Yes, you can say it, we won’t blush - we’re far too good to you.
Get in there.
