I dreamt up the idea of Coven Magazine whilst riding around day dreaming when working as a courier for City Sprint. There’s something about cycling that makes me daydream, particularly riding fixed – I guess the repetitive nature, the ceaseless pedalling sets my mind adrift.
Once I’d decided I wanted to produce a magazine which wasn’t all about being thin or what pointless reality TV stars are wearing (or not!), I wasted no time in getting it going – the first printed copy was in my hands three months later when we launched at Red Bull Studios.
A year has passed, and now issue four is here. It wouldn’t have been possible without all the brilliant people who contributed their words and pictures. So a big thank you to you all. Nor would it have been possible if I’d have spent my money on fun stuff rather than printing, but that’s another matter.
Self publishing is brilliant but tough work… I hope you’ll take a look at our latest issue and think the long slog has been worth it! If you like what you see, make sure you grab a printed copy from one of our stockists from Wednesday.
