from the society:

This is the first Trinity Term issue of Storymaker’s. Over this past year, everyone in (and out of) our club has contributed incredible work, from gothic stories to song-inspired pieces. We have all developed in our writing so much and new members have joined each term. This magazine not only shows how excellent all our writers are but also hopefully it inspires you to write your own stories too. This term we had a wonderful opportunity, to attend a gothic-themed writing workshop with the poet and author Rosie Garland. This was such an inspiring experience and all the writers who partook in the workshop found it brilliant. Not only did we have an author’s workshop, but the new student leaders of our club organised a school workshop, where students from years 9, 10 and 12 took part in lots of fun writing activities; some pieces from both workshops are in this edition of the magazine. This is our final issue with some of our members (those leaving from year 13) and we have really enjoyed working and writing with them. Miss Stuart, our club founder, has turned this small group into an amazing writing community and we wouldn’t be the Creative Writing Society without her. She dedicates so much of her time to helping the members, but also to putting together the magazine. So here I would like to say a massive thank you to her: you’ve helped and encouraged us all so much. Anyway, enough from me, let’s get to the writing, we hope you enjoy our writing in this issue of our magazine! - Arlo Evans, Club President
