WHO WE ARE

of Altered States was conceived in the dark days of 2011. By March we had recruited several local contributors and have grown ever since. Now we are a happy bunch of 25.

FAR AND WIDE

Our contributors hail from Britain, America, Norway and The Netherlands. Some have moved around and will likely continue to do so. One has even made it to the tropical island of Antigua.

of Altered States

This is of Altered States, the place where we can be who we are. It’s a place to study our craft. It’s where we experiment with our creations. But it’s also where we publish our anthologies.

of Altered States provides a platform to writers, illustrators, photographers, graphic designers and voice actors. Together we create stories and images, narratives and ideas. Our creations will be collected in our anthologies, which will be available as ebooks, and later in print and podcasts.

We hope you'll follow our journey and support our effort. To see if you like what we’re doing, our first edition is available to download for free.
