Despite my best efforts to keep at least one foot planted in prehistory (I\u2019ve yet to send a text to anyone, let alone work out the nuances of textspeak), it isn\u2019t just my occasional OU blog (and all the online tutoring) that\u2019s throwing yours truly into the bright, digital future. The new edition of Northwords Now is now available in e-reader form as well as good old fashioned paper. It won\u2019t roll into a ball quite so easily but it does mean that there\u2019s now a solution to that annoying moment when readers realise the last copy of Northwords Now has vanished from their local bookshop. Also, we get to extend the reach of the North further still.
\nThe new Kindle edition has been specially put together with an e-reader screen in mind and boasts the same fine mix of fiction, poetry, articles and reviews as the paper magazine (Tom Pow, Kona Macphee, Liz Niven and Ian Stephen all feature in our latest issue). What\u2019s more, we remain free of charge, which these days is no bad thing.
\nIf you\u2019re in any way vexed by how e-readers work and whether you\u2019ll have to fork out precious lucre on a special contraption (you don\u2019t) just visit the Northwords Now website where there are really clear instructions on how to download the magazine to an e-reader, PC, tablet or smartphone.

\nCheers and happy reading!
