About the Magazine
Founded in 2021 | United Kingdom
Wishbone Words Magazine was founded in 2021 by Hollie Warren in the Lake District, UK. The idea is to create a safe, supportive and understanding online platform to share our voices, allow healing through vulnerability and to showcase underrepresented talents and voices. If we can encourage more compassion and understanding, we are achieving the aim we set out to do!
Masthead
We currently list only main editors, more will be added later! If you are an editor, you can edit your masthead in our admin panel :)
