2012 News

Hello! I have some news for this spring term.

Inspired will be with Itch Publishing and helping with the art competition at Midlands MCM Expo in Telford on Saturday 18th February. You can find the information for this years competition here or see last years winners here.

I can also confirm we will have a table at Bristol Comic Expo in May.


What's The Time, Mrs. Woolf? is a feminist zine created by Sarah and Lily. Issue 2 was released recently containing comics, illustrations and articles by a couple of Inspired's members. Both issues are available to buy from their online shop and hopefully from our table at events. (Zine cover by Meg White) The zine has an open submission system so check their website if you would like to get involved!

Thanks!
Sammy
