n.b. To know how to download the magazine see further below.

A journal that features creative work by internationally acclaimed and emerging writers/artists like Peter Daniels, Vanessa Gebbie, John MacKenna, Jonathan Taylor, Ashley Stokes, Gopikrishnan Kottoor, Murali Sivaramakrishnan, Nabina Das, Kevin Kadwallender, Archana Mishra, Gina Gibson and many more.

There is also a special feature that focuses on haiku and related poetic forms, guest edited very effectively by our advisory board member Alan Summers.




Runner Up in the Best Magazine category of Saboteur Awards 2013, London. We got a reader comment that goes ‘Lakeview is a breath of fresh air, no clichés and obvious choices. Here to stay.’ It is indeed a great achievement to get an international recognition soon after the publication of the first issue of our journal.

To download the magazine from Issuu.

There is no need to register with Facebook, there is an 'or' choice: 


Once you have confirmed your registration by clicking onto a confirmation email, it will direct you to start your preferences in publications.  You get to a second screen page where top left is a search finder icon of a magnifying glass.  Type in Lakeview Journal, and voilà! :-)


 First, click onto the lower right box with two arrows in different directions (which is highlighted in white).


Then go to top right where the box with an arrow is, and click that, which gives you this:


Click onto download and hey presto a pdf version of the magazine!  

I do recommend registering with Issuu as there are other fine magazines of various genres that you can download too.

warm regards,

Alan

Saboteur Awards 2013: The Winners!
http://sabotagereviews.com/2013/05/30/saboteur-awards-2013-the-winners/


Best magazine category:

Winner: Rising.
Runner up: Lakeview International Journal of Literature and Arts.


'Lakeview' is the only runner up in the Best Magazine category of Saboteur Awards, London.

It's a great achievement for a magazine which has just one issue published and was competing with the established and emerging magazines of the UK and around the world. The winner 'Rising' has been around for twenty years, with Tim Wells a formidable force with a well-deserved win:

We still have a lot to learn with Lakeview Journal, but what a great start!

Considering the amount of work, from all genres, it was also gratifying to see haiku mentioned, however briefly (no pun intended).
