The Yellow Nib 4: The Literary Journal of the Seamus Heaney Centre for Poetry

"The little bird that whistled shrill from the nib of its yellow bill..." Anonymously scribbled into the margin of a ninth-century manuscript, this much-loved Irish poem has inspired countless writers and publications over the years, including The Yellow Nib: The Literary Journal of the Seamus Heaney Centre for Poetry. Now firmly established and renowned for the quality of its content, the journal takes its lead from that anonymous scribe: aiming simply to promote good writing - by both established and emerging writers - and nurture creative talent.
