Today, high up in the third-floor flat, Wornettes are whistling while they work. The tune? The Mary Tyler Moore theme song. The reason? (And no, we didn’t hire someone with a trust fund burning a hole in their pocket.) We are nominated for a National Magazine Award! Yes, the powers that be in the Canadian magazine empire conferred this nomination upon us for the cover of Issue 7! We’re up against some tough competition. There’s Toronto Life, Maisonneuve, and Vancouver Magazine to name a few… but, hey, maybe we’ll make it after all. We’d also like to congratulate our fellow indies, and our amigos at Spacing, The Walrus, THIS, Taddle Creek, and Broken Pencil. The winners are announced on June 5th at the NMA gala at Carlu in T.O.

disclaimer: That is not a photograph of Audrey Hepburn. She has never read a copy of Worn. We are in no way implying that Audrey Hepburn would absolutely love reading an issue of Worn.
