It's a laidback way to get involved with a literary magazine, and it will help level up your writing! We ask for 2-4 hours of volunteer reading each week, but I'm flexible with vacations and other commitments.
Our next submission call is coming up fast - and it's a favourite 🦝
We have a host of new prompts thanks to Red Bin and Roach, and you can now dip into multiple bins! 🪳🗑️
Trashie Selection starts 1st April.
