Fun

To prove there’s more to writing than grit and grammar, there are currently three ways to submit fun stuff to Mslexia.

Mslexia Issue 110

Mslexia Order of Merit

A chance to nominate a living woman who is making waves (in a good way) on behalf of other women's creativity and freedom of expression. Describe her campaigns of achievements in 200 words.

Writing Nest

Send a photo of the place where you write – your desk, armchair, café corner, bath – along with up to 50 words about why it works (or doesn’t work) for you.

Deadline for inclusion in Mslexia Issue 110: 6 April 2026
