I just bought my copy of DF 24 and sat down to read the article on Magda Sayed. I was really disappointed to read Magda taking credit for all the installation of the Canberra Soft Sculpture work p14. Apart from all of the volunteers who came and sewed for several days (I was one of them) there is no acknowledgment of the huge amount of work done by Michelle Fracaro of the NGA who coordinated the event and ran sessions before Magda even arrived in Canberra. Not to mention Denise aka grrl+dog who came down from Sydney and did a major amount of installation in the NGA garden as well as working with the volunteers. Fair suck of the sauce bottle Madga! Credit where credit is due…

It's quirky and beautifully designed. Would you ever consider anything on Street Photography? Kate,

I am 2/3 of the way through a journalism degree, and have been steadily losing my aspirations towards becoming a writer/journalist since beginning my course. All the lecturers seem to talk about is how we probably won't get jobs, and if we are one of the lucky few we won't be able to live off our earnings, and that our creativity will be extinguished, being reduced to rewording media releases. But oh, you have made me so excited to be a journalist again! You have reminded me why I have longed for this since I was eight years old: to meet people and tell their stories, to learn more about the world, and to actually write about things that I have an interest in rather than how many potholes are in my area's roads. I know that I will have to slog through the media releases and the interviews with various council officers for a while, but I cannot wait until I am able to get to the stage in my career that I have always dreamed of! Thank you again, Che. Hi Dumbo Feather,

I have recently left the theatre and events industry to open up a little independent bookshop in Woodend, Victoria - where I am absolutely thrilled to stock Dumbo Feather (which I get from the lovely Robyn at Modern Journal). I await each issue with excitement and am happy to say you are building up quite a following here in our misty little town. Thanks again for this gorgeous publication!! We love it. Claire Hi Kate,
