For our final plea we have an update from one of our resident dogs, Elsie:
It’s been a long year for everyone and I, Elsie the official online magazine dog, am no exception. How long was it? I went from looking like this:
To looking like this:
It’s been a long year, yet we carry on. I want to thank all supporters of the magazine for keeping me in chicken treats and allowing me to indulge in my favourite pastime—chasing split infinitives in the article submissions. I can smell one now. I must go.
This is it: your last day to subscribe to a magazine that is politically necessary and win prizes
What does a subscription to Overland get you (in addition to possibly many jaw-dropping prizes)? Our standard subscription ($60 full, $45 unwaged) will save you at least 25% on the cover price, and you’ll get 12 months of superb and provocative literary writing – that’s four print issues delivered straight to your door and the daily online magazine at overland.org.au – as well as invitations to subscriber events, other opportunities and giveaways, and a very good feeling about yourself, and the future of literary culture.
By taking out, renewing, giving a subscription or donating in the next few hours, you could win:
- today’s daily prize (see below)
- any of our two tremendous Major Prizes
- and/or one of our Regional Prizes – there’s one for each state and territory, and a most excellent prize for our New Zealand readers
- a good feeling about yourself – and the future of literary culture
If you’re already a subscriber, feel free to resubscribe – we’ll simply add another year to your existing subscription (or if you’re fully committed and flush with cash, consider a life subscription)!
