Hello all. I truly would like to thank you all for your continued support and your patience throughout this time. I’ve been in communication with some of you regarding the future of The Wire’s Dream Magazine; yet, for those that do not know, I have decided to take a pause. This is necessary for my own mental health as well as for the restructuring of what I’d like this magazine
The 8th Collection touches on themes of belonging and parenthood. We see fathers and mothers challenging the modes of love and belonging; we examine the wishfulness and disappointment felt when expectations and realities collide forcefully.
The 7th Collection, like all others, stems from meticulous work that includes vetting all submitted work to ensure authenticity and to minimize risk of plagiarism, finding stories that speak to a collective narrative of the “now”, and finding pieces that uplift the mission of The Black Lion Journal and of The Wire’s Dream Magazine. I thank all of you so much for your patience as I worked to comission pieces from some of the best contemporary creatives out there.
