No longer actively publishing, but if you haven't read everything in our archives, it's new to you! https://t.co/TWQztLxpI8

Our hiatus is coming to an end, but not in the way one might hope: we're ceasing publication. We made a great thing, the math isn't adding up, and we have to call it. Our announcement: https://t.co/TuvRXcxUBN

Pipe Wrench will publish no more. We're sad, but proud of what we made. And the website's not going anyway, so you can still read.

it bears repeating
Pipe Wrench was an experiment. To everyone who read a Pipe Wrench story, shared one, engaged with us and our writers, and/or subscribed: a million billion thank yous. To everyone who trusted us enough to publish with us, a billion zillion thank yous.

We wanted to make a new thing, we made it from scratch, we kept it going for 2 years in an awful publishing environment. We are nothing but proud. Okay, also a little sad. But really, mostly proud.

But! There are lots of other folks doing great work to build a rich, diverse indie publishing ecosystem ā @HoneyLiterary, @HammerandHope, @_luckyjefferson, @torchlitarts, @vittlesmagazine, and @AdiMagazine, to name a few. Give them your support (and dollars).

The website is not going anywhere, because no one's work should just disappear. You'll always be able to find our complete archive at https://t.co/6ERjaP1PeJ.

Always remember: magazines before Twitter, people before magazines, naps before everything. And masks. Wear āem.

Weāll be fairly quiet on the socials as well. Try not to be too sad about it.

š§µDid you know? Not getting Covid for three years doesnāt mean youāre magically immune. Ask EIC @michelleinchief how she knows! The effects are stubbornly lingering, and that means Pipe Wrench needs to take a break.

Boosting! Great opportunity for queer essayists:
Our editors are looking for queer narratives about finding community. Weāre only reading completed essays. DM us!

so glad we could be part of this story and build an issue of amazing indigenous voices around it!
Spotted in the wild, "Ghost Acres" is in The Best American Food Writing 2022, from @Thomas_D_Finger @pipewrenchmag (and #AcquiredTastes before that, https://t.co/bev9OlzkcX).
