About the Magazine
Founded in 2022 | Australia
trash to treasure lit was created to foster a community of writers who may not believe in their abilities but deserve to. for writers to learn from their words and others, and to open the conversation around why we reject our work before it’s given a chance. we encourage writers to have faith in their words and the stories they have to tell while uplifting their fellow writer the publishing industry can be brutal, and it can so effortlessly destroy your will to continue writing. the aim of this publication is to encourage writers to keep pushing through those boundaries and roadblocks, to learn that we can be our biggest critics and that we too often discard our work so that others don’t get the chance to. trash to treasure lit is a safe space for all writers - published or not every writer has a piece of ‘trash’ that we can treasure
