Thanks to Neddal Ayad and Nicole Votta for guest-editing this autumn's issue. This was a first for me, an experiment in chilling out and letting someone else handle my baby. And it's an interesting result. There are fewer familiar names here, many new faces at the party, a style or content or form that I might not normally go for, but which I am glad have been chosen. It's a heady cocktail of irreal and debauched, wild and sedate, and is a perfect assimilation of the Werdenist ideal. It's an experiment I shall most definitely repeat in the future. In the mean time, chin chin, and all that...
