On Being Ill: Digital Exhibition
We are delighted to invite artists across a range of disciplines to contribute with personal reflections on the subtle complexities around art, literature, illness, disability and care.
Virginia Woolf's essay 'On Being Ill' was first published in 1926. This year - exactly a hundred years later - The New Menard Press is excited to present a new anthology complementing our first edition, published in the early period of the Covid pandemic in 2020.
Working with a more expansive view of what could be included in this new edition, all are invited to submit. If you have a piece of work that speaks to our mission, please get in touch below.

Please note
We are a small, independent press caring passionately for the books we publish. We receive no external funding and regret we cannot pay a fee for your contribution as the production costs of this book are already significant and the full commercial risk lies with us.
