Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Folly Journal is an eclectic mix of short fiction, nonfiction, and poetry featuring some of New Zealand's best emerging artists. It has wide appeal, from your dad to your weird aunt Rose who drinks too much gin.

It's flying off the shelves for the 2023 Christmas season and has been described by Steve Braunias as having 'some of the best New Zealand writing of 2023.’ That's not what we were aiming for, but we love that that's how it has been received. Folly Journal was created to entertain a wide variety of readers, and it seems to be ticking those boxes.

Folly Journal contains mature content and is available through Bateman Distribution.

    Folly Journal 003
    Folly exists because good literature should turn you on a little. Intellectually, emotionally – sometimes viscerally. We’re not here to bore you. We’re here to dazzle you, disturb you, make you snort into your coffee and send screenshots to friends with a ‘WTF’ caption. This third annual issue is culturally charged with works from emerging and established voices across Aotearoa...
