Funding for a third Issue

We now have funding for a third edition of Transitions



We are delighted to announce that issue 3 will be published jointly by Pavement Pounders CIC and "The Mental Fight Club"


Transitions, a journal of crossings, is a forum for ideas celebrating crossings whether they be universal or personal, real or imaginary, in story, article or poem. It invites a personal take in other words of the universal themes of transition and transformation.

Transitions 1 was launched in September 2011 during the Folkestone Triennial to reflect the mythological concepts of migration, home and otherworldliness

Transitions 2 again addressed transitions and transformations but with the ‘liminal’ and the ‘fountain’ as its particular themes

Transitions 3 invites people to write about their journey into mental illness and their recovery from it. By turning back to myth – even that of Orpheus’ or Demeter’s descent - perhaps we can look forward to a greater story of which we are part, and by understanding the universal aspect of our own personal experience be freed from its constraints.
Our theme will be Ascent. Recovery. Transformation. Reintegration.
‘So much good writing is in itself a form of health’
