Clod Magazine & Books

18/09/2025

A 1990 advert for Clod Magazine by the formative writers. This advert appeared only in one of their ‘on the road’ diaries, which would have been seen by no-one else at the time. So this is something of an exclusive! First time out in the open!
Enjoy the careful graphics + stickers, fans!

Don’t forget, we’re in a tunnel at Waterloo on Saturday, as part of the Anarchist Book Fair 2025. 💣

Today, Clod staff have been table-top printing the paper wraps for our £10 back issue bundles. The high action Press Fair season (the Autumn) will be along soon, so it doesn’t hurt to get a head start on the intricate and painful prep that comes with it.
We’ll be at the Multicultural Book Fair (06/09/25), hopefully at the Anarchist Book Fair (20/09/25), then definitely at the Small Publishers Fair (24+25/10/25).
We hope to sense you there!

It’s important to have a clear and viable plan in terms of our expectations of the publishing calendar. Strict deadlines need to be met, while at the same time being aware of the high standards expected of long-term bastions of the international small press.

So, when will the next issue of Clod Magazine appear?

- We don’t know either!
