Issue #7? What? Did I miss issue #6?
Probably. Although many of our loyal fans who visited our website were treated to our special online-only edition. But never fear, you can download it now and get double your twenty600 for the price of none!
Moreover, yes, you’ve read right. This is, indeed, our final issue (although you’ll notice the ellipses on the cover, which you can interpret to mean one of two things: our contributors will continue to provide their talents around Canberra, just not in this exact forum; or, in the future, you just may see different incarnations of this fine publication). Keep an eye out either way.
Now for the acceptance speech part.
I can’t thank our contributors enough; without their generous efforts, none of this would have been possible. I genuinely believe they’re some of the finest, most incredibly talented individuals this town has to offer. And I especially want to thank Claire Thompson for being the most amazing person to have on my side – but mostly for making me laugh.
I also need to thank all the advertisers who took the risk on this, a new publication. Without their dollars, you wouldn’t be holding these pages. So go out and buy what they’re selling!
Finally, I have to thank the readers. For every negative response we received, there were hundreds of extremely positive ones telling us that they loved what we were doing. And for that I thank you. You can’t imagine what impact the tiniest gesture can have.

It’s been an amazing experience. Thanks for reading.
