Busy few weeks! 25 pages finished and - even if we say so ourselves - looking good! We go to print next week, but the more advertising we get, the bigger and better Axmag will be! We have some fantastic last-minute deals on advertising - no reasonable offers refused! Please RT

Well, after a couple of late nights, the first issue of Axmag is finally at the printers! If you're interested in stocking a few copies, or a lot of copies, please get in touch.

Busy day today. Lots of Axmags dropped off across the Axe Valley. If you struggle to find one, let us know!

Nice to see the piles of Axmags getting smaller. Have you got your copy yet? There's 7 pages of things to do, 3 pages of gardening and 4 pages of food, including a recipe from @TimMaddamsChef of River Cottage fame!

Look what the children of KS5 Axminster Community Primary Academy found on a recent litter pick in the grounds outside the Minster Church! This packet of Co-operative white #chocolatebuttons is older than some of the kids who found it! #plasticpollution #nevergoesaway #surfersagainstsewage

Issue 1 of Axmag is now online. Can't find a printed copy? Read it here instead: yumpu.com/en/document/vi…

It's time to start thinking about our second issue. Contributions (articles, events, new business openings, photography) and advertisers (prices start from just £29.40 with discounts available for block bookings) needed. The more help we get, the bigger and better Axmag will be!

Well, after a very busy few days, that's Issue 2 of Axmag off to the printers. Should be available to pick up starting on 3 July. The digital version will be online over the weekend, if you can't wait that long!

You can find Issue 2 at: Hawkchurch Community Shop; Musbury Garage; Axe Cliff Golf Club; Seaton Town Council; Seaton TIC; Seaton (large) Co-op; Coastal Craft Collective; Brogan Buzec; The Gateway; Savooni Art Space; Abbott's DIY; Colyford General Stores; Colyton Garden Shop...

...and: Kilmington Phone Box Library; ARC charity shop; Collate Interiors; Archway bookshop; Mole Avon; Axminster railway station. Still a few more places to do!

And, if you can't find a printed copy, our online version is here: yumpu.com/en/document/vi…

Disappointing, especially with the new Totally Locally HQ initiative, to see the smart new #Axminster map, produced by a company in... Northamptonshire - especially when there are several local companies more than capable of producing it!

Time to start thinking about our Christmas edition. As usual, we're on the lookout for your articles, festive events, new business openings, photography and, most importantly, advertisers (some of our best deals are available for this edition, so do get in touch!). Thanks.

You can read our fourth edition on our website axmag.co.uk or wait until tomorrow (printers and couriers permitting) to pick up a printed copy.

Issue 4 of Axmag is now at all the usual stockists, plus a couple of new ones - thanks to Tower Services and Beer Village Stores.

You might not want to think about 2020 yet, but it's time to start filling up the January / February edition of Axmag. As usual, we're on the lookout for events, articles and photography. We have a January sale on advertising too, with prices starting at just £19.60.

Still need more advertisers to make Issue 5 happen, but our Sale continues and we've extended the deadline!

Unfortunately, due to family illness, and lots of hospital visits, the editor hasn't been able to get the January & February edition of Axmag finished and off to print. Depending on how things go, it's hoped that the next edition will now be February & March. Apologies!

Following a family bereavement, I'm taking a step back from a full workload, so, regretfully, there won't be any further editions of Axmag. Sorry - especially for all the unused contributions for Issue 5. If anyone wants to take on the magazine, please do get in touch.
