This eclectic magazine has far exceeded my expectations. From the cover art to the feast of writing, reviews and articles, I was transported into a world of wonder. What a treat. All I can say is that I’m looking forward to reading the next edition.

Steel Jackdaw magazine is beautifully edited. Visually it is a sumptuous feast, presenting, as it does, the visual arts alongside poetry, flash fiction and essays. The format allows room for fascinating back-stories on the contributors and their work, demonstrating the inter-relatedness of the creative imagination and the values of kindness, well-being and sustainability. It is not only a good read but a deeply affirmative one.

Steel Jackdaw is the magazine for creators. Visual and written art forms of all kinds can be found within its pages. But it is more than an arts magazine, it has a mission. It cares about the damage we do to our environment and the inequalities that exist in our world. It empowers its readers and contributors to play their part in countering the damage we do to our earthly home.

It was such a pleasure to work alongside Jason. An absolute gentleman. What I enjoyed the most about my article was that the facts were spot on, and the quality of the photographs was true to the originals.

The magazine is rich in its varieties of focus, the natural world and our connection/disconnection at its centre. It has room for everyone; so rare and most interesting.

You’ve brought together SO much here. There is so much to take in. This creation of yours brings the most important things in my life together.

This is a lovely publication to have had a small part in and has a great deal to offer in terms of inspiration. Through it, I’ve been introduced to creators whose work I want to follow, and I’ve been prompted to think about what kinds of contributions I should be making as I move forwards.

Steel Jackdaw is a truly wonderful arts magazine, containing a veritable cornucopia of talent within its pages. It gives a worthwhile space for artists of all kinds to share their work. Poetry, stories, paintings, book reviews, essays, and more can be found inside. Discovering new talent is something I hold close to my heart. Finding a way to share those discoveries is often hard. This is where Steel Jackdaw excels.

Steel Jackdaw is, without a doubt, the most wide-ranging, engaging, exciting, beautifully presented magazine that one could hope to be featured in. As a poet, it was so exciting to see my work published alongside work from so many creators of all sorts of disciplines. It is also clear that it is a publication that truly respects both its readers and contributors and only wants to publish the very best that it has to offer. It is such an honour to have been featured.
