Welcome to Qind Blogazine's 'Mother Issue'. As the very first, we are in essence giving birth to a concept that has been in gestation for a while. This is our starting point and as with all things, life begins with the mother. An initial focus on the nurturer is appropriate for a gay magazine that looks to present alternative, more human and truly intimate perspectives on our lifestyle. With all creative content coming from our readers, we wanted a primary theme that most have a personal, unique and engaging experience with.

Interested in contributing your own creativity to Qind? Simply browse through our briefs and submit your stuff! Your submission will be routed to our editors who will work on it for publication. Our deadline for contributions for the first issue is Saturday, 22 November, 2008.

Enjoy and thank you for embarking on this journey with us!
