Hello boys and girls,
The latest issue of PoV is ready for your eyes and brains to absorb. The theme is love (ahhh) and it's got loads of wonderful things inside. Why don't you take a look.
If that's all a little too lovely for you why don't you get involved with our next issue? The theme is hate. Grrr.

Love bites
01/05/13 20:13
Well, we’re back.
After the excitement of the best of issue we’ve had a wee break but we’re now well rested and tanned and ready for another set of barn-storming issues of your favourite free online mag filled with great new art from all over the world. That’s us, by the way.
The Love issue is well underway at PoV Towers and should be flying onto your computer/iPad/smartphone screens within the next couple of weeks. Exciting eh?
It’s jam-packed with amazing work from some of our favourite people, some new some old. Talking of those exciting ‘new’ contributors we’d like you to meet our new friends, Love Bites. If you haven’t heard of them yet let us fill you in. Love Bites is a theatre company that have been around since 2008 and have produced over 30, brand spanking new and brilliant, one-act plays. Their annual show invites submissions on the shared theme of love, each time choosing a new location for the latest installment in the series. So far the plays have taken place in a restaurant, a bar, a summer wedding, a Christmas office party, a hotel room and most recently a cocktail party. Throughout the year Love Bites also produces one-off nights of new writing and rehearsed readings.
Right up our street I think you’ll agree. So much so, we’ll be featuring extracts from Love Bites scripts in both our Love and Hate issues. You’re in for a treat.
But if you can’t wait that long why not go along to their next show if you’re in London. In fact, even if you’re not, come on down and lets make a night of it. For more info and to get in touch check them out online here and on Twitter here.

Tom Morgan's Storied Streets get involved
10/12/11 15:26
There is a lot of excitement at PoV Towers in the lead up to Issue 1, especially after getting in touch with producer Tom Morgan about his new documentary These Storied Streets.
On the films website Tom describes the documentary:
These Storied Streets explores homelessness across America by telling the stories of those who live it every day. The full-length documentary film profiles the homeless and the formerly homeless as well as the volunteers and organisations working to get people off the streets. Their stories are real, raw and compelling.
Tom is writing a book about his journey and the people he met along the way and has very generously donated an extract for the magazine. It’s going to be brilliant, we can’t wait for you to read it.
Head over to the Storied Streets website to find out more and to watch an exclusive sneak preview of the film.
Download Issue 1 – STREETS – for free when it arrives on the site in January.

Hello there PoV-ers (I’m trying that out, not sure if it works yet!)
We’re very proud to announce that Jürgen Bürgin will be one of the contributors in our first magazine, out mid January.

This PoV ride is well and truly underway.
