Getting my copy by subscription, I usually find it arrives about the 12th of the month, and it is usually in W.H.Smith's around the same tiome, give or take a day.
Hi Mummymorts,
Thank you Carol! The August issue is actually out on the 14th as the 12th is a Saturday.
The information is on p39 of the July issue and is always displayed on p3.
Best wishes

Oh dear, in that case, I've made a terrible mistake. I whizzed through my last Writers' News, so treated myself to a copy of Writer's Forum, which I still haven't finished. Then this morning Mslexia was delivered - I always lose track of when it's due. Now it looks like Writers' News will be out soon and I'm getting way behind - as usual! And that's on top of the books I haven't read, the last issue of Scribble, the OCD Action newsletter etc etc. For some reason, having too big a pile of reading material sends me into a bit of a panic - probably something to do with my OCD, loss of control etc. I need to stop buying stuff and stacking it up...or hide the unread material, so that it's not glowering at me from my bookshelves. So much to read, so little time. Better get off Talkback, then.
Haven't had the post yet, will let you know if it turns up.
Perhaps Webbo is over worked at the moment. Or a month ahead. August the 12th does fall on a Saturday.
I think that explains it.
I always start to panic too and then realise that the closing dates for the competitions are months away. Actually, I work better with tighter deadlines, but I read once that WN and WM allow so much time so that subscribers in remote parts of the world stand an equal chance of getting their entries in. Perhaps Webbo could confirm that?
