Posted by on 04 September 17:09 (over 8 years ago)

Please join us in welcoming the Selfish Magazine “Just One More” Tour, which, in the person of founder and editor-in-chief, Taylor Yates -- along with potential TBA guest(s) – will be stopping in for a presentation at Lili Cafe from 7 to 8pm, followed by a reception and sales at Copacetic from 8 to 9pm.  

Selfish is a biannual, mostly memoir magazine that encourages women to share true stories through unabashedly creative means. Contents include essays, poetry, photo series, comics, illustrations, video stills and more. Issue two, “Just One More,” explores the ways in which we grapple with the countless moments that chip away at our innocence, the fluidity of identity, and the sweet futility of resisting change. Featuring the work of 30 contributors, “Just One More” takes readers through experiences of bewilderment, expansion, self-discovery, and more. 

A publication that celebrates the female story, Selfish was created as a means to tackle the continuing lack of female presence in publishing as well as encourage women to engage in creative truth-telling. Issue one featured the work of 18 contributors in the form of poems, essays, and photos. 

Alongside a reading from and discussion of the project, we will be encouraging female attendees to bring out their own work with the intention of publishing pieces collected on the road in our third issue, to debut next January. So, if this sounds like you, bring your work in to share!
