Text Box: Big Pond Rumour ~ The Zine
Text Box: Big Pond Rumour is an International Zine featuring quality poetry, stories, essays and reviews. 
Our Premiere Issue was released on July 6th, 2006 to great acclaim.  People say our periodical is more like a book than a magazine. Check out what they mean. Stop with us awhile and have a good read.

Our Premiere Issue arrived in two formats (online and print) during July 2006. This unique Zine received rave reviews from contributors and readers alike for the quality of work presented within its pages. Big Pond Rumour is brimming with poetry and stories from English language authors located around the globe. Yet, as people received the print version of the Zine the compliments became even more glowing. Not only is it substantial in size but the design is very readable and the illustrations are a perfect compliment to the text. 

If you enjoy relaxing with a good book, this is the Zine for you. It has perfect dimensions to cuddle up in a chair with it. Moreover, Big Pond Rumour brims with poetry and stories from English authors located around the globe. 
If you are a reader, you will come to expect the best from us in poetry, short stories and essays.
If you are a writer, we encourage you to take a look at our back issues. We are a Zine with a difference… in so many ways! We charge no fee to read your submissions and we run a contest in every issue. In addition, our contest prizes include Membership with a web page on the Big Pond Rumour site! Who else does that? 
Finally, if you are a graphic artist or photographer we are the place for you. We feature visual arts in each issue.
