Description:Q5556

For this issue, iilwimi lipsing, we changed our funding model quite radically. We went from diy to Arts Council Funded to be able to share the invitation to contribute more widely. While this undoubtedly has made a vibrant issue, the capacity needed for writing the funding application (it took a year with managing wage work and life commitments!), receiving support for this, rejigging our framework to fit narrow funding criteria, meant that the original spirit of the PaperWork was somewhat thwarted. The thought of beginning the next issue with another funding application at the time when Arts Council had just changed their application system, has contributed to PaperWork quietly folding away. This issue lives on in the eight boxes of unbound issues under my bed. Let me know if you'd like a copy!
