No.1 Fake is a magzine primarily for poetry and illustration, though we do often accept articles on a range of subjects, are not adverse to photographs or recipes, and would even accept a crossword if someone made one for us.
Our aesthetic is hand made, a bit messy, a bit punky. We love drippy ink, cellotape, spray paint, photocopiers, biros, typewriters, collage, newsprint, vintage paintings, scratches, acetate, rips, mess and anything that doesn't look slick, boring or computer generated. Too much of our world is created on a computer without being touched directly by a human hand, and we think this is just a bit wrong. Flaws and shaky handstyles, faded letters and unavoidable splatters of ink are what makes the world beautiful.
