Big Ugly Review

Issue 5

Showcasing the best emerging and established talent in writing, photography, music and film.

welcome This issue was a "first time" for us in many ways. It was our first contest - each category of The Contest Issue had a different judge and the winner took home a prize, and the theme was a free-for-all. We got the highest number of submissions ever (especially in Music), and the final decisions were not easy. We hope you like the winning entries as much as we do.
