Worms 10 explores love in all its political, messy and transformative forms.

Published amid rising transphobia, the ongoing genocide in Gaza and widespread global instability, this issue asks what it means to write about love, beauty and devotion in a time of crisis.

Featuring contributions from Shon Faye, Torrey Peters, Melissa Febos, Sarah Aziza, Precious Okoyomon, Carmen Maria Machado and many others, the issue considers questions of desire, intimacy, family, sex and care. From trans resilience and motherhood to age-gap relationships and unconventional forms of love, Worms 10 celebrates writing, and love itself, as acts of resistance, truth and survival.
