Modern Storytelling

About Me

Real life, true stories: BAD IDEA is the little magazine that matters – the small-format publication that thinks big.

A quarterly of personal storytelling, it features the very best in young journalism, photostories, artwork, and comics. With high editorial values and a youthful perspective, BAD IDEA is a return to the personal, the eccentric, the candid and terrifying.

Consistently publishing intelligent, groundbreaking content, BAD IDEA sits firmly at the vanguard of young British magazines.
