Sisters,
Sinister Wisdom is launching into 2019 with a bang! Sinister Wisdom 111: Golden Mermaids is winging its way through the postal system as of yesterday en route to your mail box and ready to be admired, read, devoured, and shared! I cannot wait for you to have this great issue profiling the best contemporary writing by lesbians.
Sinister Wisdom 111: Golden Mermaids is an amazing gathering of lesbian writers and artists; some names you will recognize, some names you will not, all you will want to remember. Sinister Wisdom 111: Golden Mermaids is on its way to you in January, if you are a subscriber of Sinister Wisdom. Not a subscriber? Click here!
Sinister Wisdom 111: Golden Mermaids features serious, funny, beautiful, heart wrenching, and wonderful writing and art—all reflecting lesbian ideas, notions, and actions in our contemporary world. I hope you love this issue and will share it with friends to remind them of the important work Sinister Wisdom is doing in the world.
The cover of Sinister Wisdom 111: Golden Mermaids features wonderful artwork by Meagan Lyle. You can preview the cover here. In addition, the back cover has an image titled "Moving Women" by Sara Koppel. I am saving that image for subscribers, so no preview online! You will want to have this issue to see it!
If you are a subscriber, Sinister Wisdom 111: Golden Mermaids is in the mail to you right now. Most subscribers and advance orderers should have their copy by the end of January. If you do not receive your copy by Valentine's Day 2019, email me and I will investigate.

It is a pleasure to have this issue documenting amazing lesbian writing being done today. I cannot wait for you to have it in your hands!
Support the Sinister Wisdom Annual Campaign!
Our fall fundraiser has nearly raised the $7,500 we need to continue publishing Sinister Wisdom in 2019. To date we have raised $7,131.55. So between now and December 31st, we just need to add an additional $368.45 to reach our goal. Have you renewed your subscription? Have you made a charitable gift to Sinister Wisdom this year? If the answer is no, please renew or make a gift before midnight on December 31st. I appreciate your support.
Some women have figured out the very best way to ensure that they get every single new issue of Sinister Wisdom: they are Sinister Wisdom sustainers! For a low monthly payment (starting at just $3 bucks a month!), Sinister Wisdom sustainers get every copy of the journal in their mailbox and never have to worry about renewals.
Our sustainers are growing thanks to the generosity of the lesbian community. I'd love to have you join as a sustainer today. Sustainers pay through paypal; j ust select the option from the first dropdown box on this page. (Alternative, if you want to arrange for your bank to mail a monthly check or if you want to do a direct payment through your bank to Sinister Wisdom, that is just fine!)
There are so many good reasons to be a Sinister Wisdom sustainer. If your monthly budget can support Sinister Wisdom, I hope you will consider making this commitment to the journal. One of the perks of being a sustainer is that each month when your payment comes through, I share an email with you of a behind the scenes snapshot of life at Sinister Wisdom. Sign up today to get that email each and every month.
Sinister Wisdom Celebrates Lesbian Lives!
One of my great pleasures in 2018 was editing and publishing Sinister Wisdom. It was an amazing year of issues and special projects (both Sister Love and our 2019 calendar are wonderful!). Thank you for your support to make this work possible.
I am excited about what new sinister wisdoms we can imagine and enact in 2019!
As always, share your thoughts with me about Sinister Wisdom. Think about how YOU can contribute to our continued work publishing, celebrating, and promoting lesbian literary arts, and join us in the revolution at hand.
In sisterhood,
Julie
