An exploration of morality in ‘Macbeth’ page 2

Editors’ Letter

Dear all,

We are so excited to launch our first edition of ‘Writer’s Blot’, a magazine which encompasses everything literary. We wanted to share our passion for the subject with the rest of the North London community, and publish poetry, short stories, book reviews, literary analysis, essentially anything remotely English based. We hope that this eclectic array of disciplines and genres provides a glance into the world of books and conveys the power of literature. In future editions, we’re looking to collaborate with other schools, so please watch this space for more details. Thank you for reading our magazine. Alex Morgan and Schuyler Daffey Editors in chief
