Early in the morning of April 14th 2010, the ash cloud from an Icelandic volcano closed European airspace for eight days. Thousands of people were stranded, all over the world - including me.

The perfect opportunity for a magazine. I put out a call for contributors, which was picked up by media all over the world. There was only one condition: everyone had to be stranded, like me, due to the ash cloud. Once we were in touch, I'd give them an assignment.

Stranded magazine is an 88-page publication with more than 50 contributors, all of whom were stranded as a result of the volcanic ash cloud. Scroll down to see sample spreads.

Among its features:

• Volcano cocktail recipes from around the globe • A famous vulcanologist puts things into perspective • An acclaimed novelist writes a horror story set inside the ash cloud • 53 top journalists and the head of London's Design Museum have a 16-hour race to catch a boat

plus how an eruption in Iceland caused a resignation in Afghanistan, an exclusive piece of graffiti art, a chance encounter with a cute Parisian waiter, a playlist for abandoned airports, and much, much more.
