About Three Monkeys Online

Three Monkeys Online is a current affairs/arts magazine produced by writers in Ireland, Italy, Spain and the UK.

The magazine was set up three years ago, and has grown from a couple of hundred visitors a month to over 100,000 visitors per month.

We've set up our myspace page to point out the magazine, to highlight things we're involved in, and to make new friends.

Are you a budding journalist/writer? Want to see your work published in a much-read and highly respected magazine? We're always on the look out for quality material to add to the Three Monkeys Mix. Come and take a look at the magazine to see the sort of work we publish.
