In the meantime, check out our summer feature (scrivenerreview.com/read) and the work from our new archive (scrivenerreview.com/archive). And keep sending photos of mags, hats, and stickers in the wild.

While the summer might be winding down, we’re just getting started. Stay tuned for updates about upcoming opportunities to join the team and/or submit work.

We love seeing Scrivener merch out in the world. From the beaches of Victoria to the Chelsea Hotel, sun protection has never looked better. Not to mention how stunning issue 46 is by the sea.
