Worms is a pioneering, female-led print publishing platform dedicated to amplifying the voices of writers marginalised within the literary world. With a deep commitment to underground and independent publishing, we provide a vital space for bold, experimental, and boundary-pushing creative expression.

Rooted in a mission to challenge the exclusivity of traditional publishing, Worms actively seeks to elevate writers whose work exists at the intersections of multiple identities and lived experiences. This includes those shaped by class, race, cultural background, disability, and gender. By fostering a vibrant and inclusive literary community—both in London and beyond—we not only provide a platform for underrepresented voices but also work to redefine the literary.

Worms Magazine is a biannual literary style magazine that celebrates the intersection of literature and culture, offering a dynamic space for new voices in contemporary writing. Worms Publishing transcends conventional boundaries of form and genre, championing experimental writers and bringing their work from the underground to the literary topsoil.

In this issue:

This latest issue of Worms invites readers into a bold and tender exploration of love in all its messy, political, and transformative guises.

Set against the backdrop of state-sanctioned transphobia in the UK and US, ongoing genocide in Gaza, and a litany of global injustices that see us staggering under the weight of collective and personal upheaval, this issue reckons with thinking and writing about love in a time of crisis. How do we take seriously the seemingly frivolous demands of love, devotion, beauty—in all their myriad and sometimes painful forms—when basic needs and rights are stripped away.

Featuring voices from at home and overseas including Shon Faye, Torrey Peters, Melissa Febos, Constance DeJong, Sarah Aziza, Precious Okoyomon, Carmen Maria Machado and Constance Debré, as well as contributions from rising stars in experimental literature, we ask: How can we continue to love someone who refuses to change? Is writing about sex still strange – or have we done and seen it all? What do you do if you fall in love with your sperm donor?

From the resilience and fierce creativity of trans writers, the challenges and ethics of telling love stories that are not our own, to the guts and gristle of motherhood, pet love, age-gap relationships and getting off on poetry, Worms 10 is a testament to the power of writing, and of love, as acts of resistance, reclamation and truth.
