The all-new Issue 9 is out now, with - for the first time in the long and illustrious history of the Quiet Feather - a COLOUR cover, beautifully illustrated by Miss Ping/Julie McDermott.

This issue is loosely themed around 'Light' and we've got articles covering the darkness of surveillance society, the science of light, flaming tea and the tarnished brilliance of St. Tropez along with the usual wide and wonderful selection of poems, stories, drawings and photos.

Thanks to everyone whose work appears in this issue. We're really, really pleased with it. Contributors' and subscribers' copies will be on their way very shortly.
