Extra Teeth #11 Heartbreaks and renewed husband-hunting; labour strikes in the strangest places; and political sidelining that comes with consequences; the characters in this, Extra Teeth’s eleventh issue, are fighting back against the forces in their worlds. Whether it’s trying to care for a loved one far away, turning rage and hatred into pure lust, or striking out in places that have been made alien, these stories are full of boldness and agency— published alongside essays that consider the meaning of home, language and how we belong. Featuring some of Scotland’s best emerging and established writers alongside exciting voices from further afield, the twelve stories and essays that comprise Issue Eleven of Extra Teeth are all translated into brash and beautiful graphics by Glasgow-based illustrator Agnes Boman. About Extra Teeth Magazine: Extra Teeth was started as a place for experimental, bold and unique stories and essays that might not find a home in any other literary magazine. We have always been about creating space for the weird and the wonderful, and celebrating the great diversity of Scotland’s writing scene—alongside the best international writing. Based between Edinburgh and Glasgow, Extra Teeth functions not only as a magazine, but as a writer development space, offering highly competitive free mentorships with our editors and hosting events for emerging writers, from open Q&A sessions to workshops with our alumni writers. From our first issue we have established a policy of transparency, active diversity and fair pay. The magazine has a special emphasis on new writing coming from writers in Scotland, but with an international outlook.
