A New Quill For A New Year

They said they were revamping Quill into a lifestyle mag. However, I wasn't quite prepared for the new look, which was finally revealed last week.


The new Quill, not quite like the old Quill


It's like watching your prim-and-proper little girl grow up into Lady Gaga.

While book-related pieces will have a place in the 'new' Quill, expect to see more everyday stuff behind the covers. As this incarnation of Quill evolves, we hope to feature more great stuff as the mag finds its voice (because now everybody can contribute, not just authors and book people).




What you'll find in this issue:

  • With her new guide book on how to be a successful model, Amber Chia pays it forward. Find out how she made her name.
  • Stephen HB Twinings of Twinings Tea, talks about the beverage and the company, and shares his reading habits.
  • A note from Datuk Abdul Kadir Jasin of Berita Publishing on Tun M's Blogging to Unblock: A Citizen's Rights.
  • An excerpt from Adibah Amin's As I Was Passing II: "A laughter of eggs" and other odd-sounding collective nouns.
  • Chef Malcom Goh from AFC's Back to the Streets re-invents several hawker delights.
  • Strategies to start saving for one's retirement, from Yap Ming Hui.
  • An excerpt from Only 13 the "sordid sexposé" about a young victim of Thailand's sex industry.

And more. It's still RM8 per copy and available at all major bookstores and news stands.
