Hello all of you amazing untethered-ites, WE NEED YOUR HELP!

It’s getting to be that time again – submissions are flying in and were starting to scramble and scrounge!

We have received so many amazing art submissions for this issue it’s so hard to choose which ones to use! But we do know one thing, WE WANT MORE COLOUR!!

We want to print this next issue with a few extra colour pages for the artwork inside, but in order to do this we have to be able to afford it! So now’s the time! WE NEED YOUR AMAZING (and super appreciated) DONATIONS to make our next issue even better than the last!

MORE MONEY MEANS MORE COLOUR!

We sincerely appreciate any amount of financial help. Your donation of $10 or $20 (or more!) will really help us and, with your permission, we will print your name in our second issue as one of our first supporters.

Please click here to donate to untethered through our PayPal account OR if you’d rather send a cheque or give us cash just send us an email and we’ll give you those details.

Remember when you first held untethered in your hands, opened up the first page and saw this weird cut-out line, instructions to tear out the page and make something with the random scattering of words on the back?

Yeah, we’re still waiting for yours!

If you don’t want to tear up your issue, we understand. Here’s a printable version of the page if you still want to have that feeling of cutting up paper and making something out of it. A poem, short prose, an image, whatever you want. Take a photo of it and post it with a tag for us on Instagram, send it to us on Twitter (both @untetheredmag), or post it to our Facebook page. Or you can email it to us, at untetheredmagazine [at] gmail [dot] com. We will publish our favourites in the next issue! Send them to us by December 15th, 2014.

 

Here’s our very first one, and untitled piece created by one of our editors, Stephanie McKechnie:

Oh! Oh! The posthuman stagger!
The country croak was in its blood:
a phantom linguist
an acid aphrodisiac.
Scissors untethered
the finite paper river.
That summer, the colonizer buckled
the lemons.
