NQ taking shape

Rivits of ideas, ribs of stories, not ready to sail but structure underway...

Yikes, those old sands of time...


It seems we just launched our Spring Issue - and what a nice reaction we're getting to our beautiful cover drawing by Phillipa Jones - but according to the calendar we're already under a month to the next copy deadline. So, without further ado, let the assembling begin.

And we have a winner


We went on the air with Ted Blades on CBC's On The Go, and the beautiful and talented Lynda Boyd (you know her of course as Rose on the hit Republic of Doyle), and we talked about the magazine and the tv show and all kinds of interesting stuff - and then Ms. Boyd drew the winning entry. Joseph Gough of Ontario won - he bought the NQ as a Christmas gift for his wife so good karma all around.

NQ as Easter treat


Spring 2012 arrives today, and we'll be turning our mailout around as fast as possible - maybe they'll even reach you in time for the Easter weekend. That would be some nice writing to consume, along with chocolate bunnies and foil-wrapped eggs.
