What's with The Deer?
We like to play with words. TheRightEyedDeer literary ezine is an offshoot of The Write Idea, an international writers' forum.
It's free to join the forum, and we have a wide global membership. Share your work, exchange views and experience, and help each other develop as writers. We support all forms of writing: fiction, poetry, and everything else. Whether you're new to writing or an old hand looking for inspiration, you can be sure of a warm welcome. You'll find a link amongst our tabs to find your way there.
Armed with an editorial team of forum members, The Deer is looking to blow you away with literary excellence. Of course, we'd recommend that you buy an issue to just see how good it is, but that is only an option. The Deer is published as a free download PDF, and is adjusting to print too.
We also seek artwork for the magazine covers and internally.
