Death of the print media? What? Manchester's about to get itself two shiny new magazines, and neither one is called Time Out (no word on that launch, BTW)
RevolveWire is a new Manchester-based magazine about culture and creativity. It's quite beautiful, and is edited by the shockingly multi-talented Ruth Heritage. The theme of the first issue is looking, and it should be available soon from stockists nationally and then some. *Blatant Plug* I contributed an article in this issue about blog fiction and an interview with the amazing Sarah Hepola. (Coughs awkwardly, changes subject.)
Who's Bob? In his own words, Bob is "a new free magazine that's as honest, unpretentious and approachable as its name suggests, bob is here for you. interested in the things that make you love life, bob will be a trusty companion ready and waiting in all the best haunts around manchester. bob launches in late march."
Check out that pilot issue on their website. Looks pretty dang good to me, and even features writing from email ninja and huge Manchester Museum fan, Andrew Shanahan.
Go on, shower them both with love and affection.

Ooh, more Manchester magazine goodness! Can't wait to see them in the flesh, so to speak...
Any idea on when RevolveWire will be released? Cheers, Nick
Hey Nick. Last I heard it was coming out in the next couple of weeks - sorry I can't be more specific!
I am a magazine addict so I'm really excited to hear about two more mags especially them being based in Manchester. *Blatant Plug* I'm the editor of SUBvert magazine and blog, but I never feel other magazines are competition I think its fantastic when I hear about new magazines,I can add them to my collection. Thanks for this post and I love your blog you now have a new fan.
