Curiouser and Curiouser: Issue 3 - Introduction

“Curiouser and curiouser!” cried Alice (she was so much surprised, that for the moment she quite forgot how to speak good English).”

-Lewis Carroll, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland

​

It has been interesting to announce our first-ever theme for this current issue, then, in the words of graphic designer Anthony Dunne, “see what emerges.” 

​

What has emerged is a collection of curiously diverse pieces, which include eerie photographs, a podcast conversation on horror movies, music from one of our writing contributors, poetry by lifelong writer and octogenarian, and more. In addition, the theme has inspired my co-editor, Will, and our web designer, Dakota, to expand the breadth of the magazine’s offerings to include regularly updating content recommendations (at the bottom of the home page) and blog posts on our experiences working in the creative field (click on the “BLOG” option on the menu); we hope these will pique your curiosity as well. 

​

As ever, I would like to thank all of our contributors for giving their work a home with us, and I would like to thank you, our readers, for being the audience for this work. I hope you’ll consider sharing your work with us in the future and inviting your friends to do the same. If you do not consider yourself creative—an incorrect self-assessment, to be sure—the invitation is also open for you to submit a guest recommendation or blog post. Simply send whatever you’d like to share to nextpageinkmag@gmail.com. 

 

Stay curious!
