After 28 years in the publishing business, Womyn's Words has ceased operations.
The newspaper, edited by Pat Ditto and published by the not-profit Womyn's Energy Bank, produced its last issue this month and announced its closure on its cover.
Over the years, the publication's editorial content covered news pertinent to the lesbian community and also helped raise funds for the Sonia Plotnick Health Fundâ┚¬â€Âamong other charities.
When contacted for reflections on Womyn's Words' impact on the community over nearly three decades, Ditto declined to comment. However, she did confirm that the publication's current issue is its last.
Womyn's Words was started by Anne Miller in 1983 and at its peak boasted 44 pages of news, ads and event listings.
