Enamel: An End to Enamel

An End to Enamel

I just wanted to officially let everyone know that this forthcoming Enamel will be the last one.

Putting out a lit mag such as this takes a lot of time, effort and money. I've had good support from many writers around the world and in New Zealand but unfortunately I've decided not to continue with this project. There are lots of really interesting lit mags and journals in New Zealand at the moment and I look forward to supporting them.

Thanks for all your submissions.

enamel |iˈnaməl|
noun

• a work of art executed in such a substance.

ORIGIN late Middle English (originally as a verb; formerly also as inamel): from Anglo-Norman French enamailler, from en- ‘in, on’ + amail ‘enamel,’ ultimately of Germanic origin.

Enamel had three editions of which there are limited copies. Contact enamel dot editor at gmail dot com if you would like some.
