Worms 4 & 8
Worms 4 is the The Flaneuse issue, which reconsiders psychogeography and the Situationists from a non-male perspective, taking flâneuserie and the creative benefits of a good walk as its starting point, featuring conversations with Eileen Myles, Alison Bechdel, Lauren Elkin, Tilly Lawless, Mckenzie Wark and more. Worms 8 is our ‘elements’ issue, split into four sections—earth, fire, air and water—but its roots and webs push beyond what we typically think of as ‘the natural’: tales from the kitchen from Rebecca May Johnson and Slutty Cheff, reflections on gardening and colonialism, writer's block and clogged pipes, how to blow up pipelines with Andreas Malm, grief and writing, recovery and nature with Octavia Bright, social mobility with Isabel Waidner, the wide range of issues raised by the underrepresentation of First Nations people in literature with Evelyn Araluen and much, much more.

Worms 7 is the ‘Artists who Write and Writers who Art’ Issue. We’ve looked to our visual counterparts for some soil nutrients. We’ve wormed our way into the psyche of the artist, to bring you the ‘Artists That Write, and Writers That Art’ issue. Many of our subjects in the past have come into writing via non-traditional routes (filmmaking, curation, art, performance, podcasting, and so on), so it only felt right to cast a spotlight over those who have inspired our experimental literary practices so far. Not only those that use words within their visual practice, but those who use images to inform their writing. The reader, the writer, the artist, the activist, the poet and performer; they’re all here and they’re all worms.
Worms 6 is the Impurity Issue. Exploring the Impure in literature, starting with the New Narrative movement and expanding to look at the joys and complexities of using other peoples stories, ideas surrounding appropriation and taking from the archive Featuring Saidiya Hartman, Calla Henkel, Jenny Zhang and many more.
