Hello dear backers!

We've officially breached 70%! We're very excited, and very thankful, for all the support you've shown us thus far. In case you haven't seen it yet, you can hear (and see!) some of our exuberance over on Youtube. Liam Hall, of Liam's Lyceum, recently interviewed Julian and Graham about Old Moon on his channel. Hear them talk inspiration, writing preferences, favorite stories, and the wide, wonderful world of translation. You can check the video out here.

And, if you're a backer, you will note that we have something special this week: a free story from the archives! That's right: in the spirit of Arthurian largesse, we've included one of our previous Arthurian stories here in fun, slightly ornamented, pdf. It is "Galatine," by Alexander Atreya, Told from the perspective of Gawain's sword, the eponymous Galatine, it's a short (but lovely) read that combines two of our favorite things: sentient swords, and darker takes on Arthurian knights. It was originally published in Old Moon Quarterly 8. Let us know what you think!

We have a bit of a surprise! Another artist has joined us for Old Moon 2025: Rune Hrafnagaldur! We're very excited to have Rune with us, and we're really looking forward to the woodcut-style art Rune shall contribute to our magazine! We've attached a few art pieces here to give you a sense of what Rune will create for us:

Let us know which one is your favorite in the comments! (you can probably guess ours)

Sincerely,

The Editors at Old Moon
