Hot Mess: Hot Wired - Edition 5, out now. Get your mitts on a copy at Brother Jenkins, for $7. We just heard that zines in Melbourne are $30 cos they're pretentious t***s, which means Hot Mess is a heckin' bargain. It's full of good stuff like ma********on, dodgy horroscopes, bad art (ours) + better art (yours). Get it!

Righto hot messers, are you ready to submit for our next edition? Get those stories and poems off the back burner and into the boiler. This edition’s theme is Old Wives Tales… If you need some inspo, think: fact or fiction; oral traditions; superstitions; premonitions… cautionary tales and things taken with a grain of salt. Interpret the theme as literally or as fancifully as you like. Even the most tenuous of thematic link is fine by us - it's all gravy baby!

Send us your comics and collages and creative musings and all things art + writing to [email protected] - Due Date is 15 Oct.
