Emily's Voice

What is all that WONDER?

The magazine-style publication is a collection of stories, articles, artwork and graphics designed to engage people with the life topic in an easy and beautiful way. Published by Emily’s Voice, it will be inspirational and practical.

Our goal is that people will use the magazine as a means of being educated, inspired and mobilised for life.

We are printing the magazine late this year for launch and distribution in 2020.

In practical terms, all that WONDER is:

• A magazine that you’ll be proud to have on your coffee table!

• 104 pages, full colour, 210 x 274mm, on quality matte stock.

• Printed locally (not off-shore).

• Includes 20 real stories (many first-person accounts) of people who have faced an unplanned pregnancy. These are accompanied by watercolour portraits.

• Relevant and up-to-date information on where Australia sits in the life issue.

• Empowering reads on how every person can make a difference.

• A strong focus on how true culture change happens at a grassroots level, when we are proactive in our circles of influence.

• Collaborative artworks supplied by friends of Emily’s Voice.

• The editor of all that WONDER is Claire van Ryn, awarded author of FLaM.

• Copies will be available to purchase from March 2020.

• Retail price is $18.95.

Emily’s Voice has already received one generous donation towards the production and publication of All that WONDER magazine, which means we are a good way towards achieving our budgetary goals. We invite you to be part of the story by donating what you can. 

Our initial target of $5,000 will cover the remaining printing costs only. 

If this campaign surpasses expectations, funds will also go towards:

• Design and layout

• Portraits (by watercolour artist)

• Administrational expenses

• Professional proofreading

If this campaign is mind-blowingly successful, funds will also go towards:

• Book launch costs

• Distribution

• Publicity

Potential Challenges

Is publishing a magazine a challenge? Well sure! It’s time-consuming and extremely involved. Think coordinating content, while ensuring the vision translates to the page, and that’s not to mention the logistics of timeline, postage, storage, distribution and marketing.

But we are so confident in the need for all that WONDER, that we’ve already begun. Our designer is full steam ahead, we’ve booked the print date, and we’re making connections with key people for distribution.

Australia needs this magazine. 

One of the familiar questions we are asked at Emily’s Voice is this: What can I do? all that WONDER is a response to that question. Because once people are inspired, resourced and empowered, there is so much that can be done to lovingly change the culture of life in our beautiful country.
