Just a quick email to say one of my poems - The East Yorkshire Crematorium - has won a prize in an Envoi competition. This was one I read at Dream Catcher wokshop when you [Paul Sutherland] were presiding and you offered suggestions which I incorporated. I'm immensely pleased to have become involvled with Dream Catcher as it has made me work much harder at my writing.

From Jason Lever, a London subscriber

" Just some feedback: as a Canadianist, couldn't resist subscribing to receive current issue 23 and enjoyed the collection tremendously. Looking forward very much to next two issues, and hoping that may have found a literary journal/magazine for me (and tried a few!). Thanks. Jason.

 

  • "About Dream Catcher 24: Wonderful stuff. As usual it stretches my mind and challenges my spirit. It lodges itself in my 'spirit' and helps me look to tomorrow with greater clarity and hope. Imagination and vision subtly bound together. Many, many thanks." A subscriber

After much struggle and delay Dream Catcher 24 is out.

The issue is an extradordinary blend of national and international writing, from Turkey, Nigeria, Ireland, USA, and from the UK. Well-known authors such as Graham Mort, Myra Schneider, Tony Roberts, Ian Parks, Mario Susko Micheal Henry and Chris Hardy are featured and Abigail Morley (short-list for the Forward Prize Best First Collection, 2010).

Humorous stories from the USA; translation of Ingeborg Bachmann, excellent artwork and reviews of such writers as the Austrailian Sandy Fitts and UK poet, Josephine Dickinson.

Dream Catcher is as much fiction as poetry, as much national as international. It knows no barriers or borders. It aims for diversity and excellence, to encompass all subjects and all forms of writing to represent the contemporary world's cultural mix. Contemporary Writing for Contemporary Readers
