The best moments in reading are when you come across something – a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things – which you had thought special and particular to you. Now here it is, set down by someone else, a person you have never met, someone even who is long dead. And it is as if a hand has come out and taken yours.
— Alan Bennet

A Note From The Editor

Dear Reader

This journey started out, like most things, as an idea. I’ve had many ideas in the past, but none of them have stuck quite like this one. During my third year at university I was introduced to the world of magazine journalism. I adored every aspect and gone was the dream to be a television presenter. This new dream stayed with me until I jumped in the deep end, quit my 9-5 and now I’m here. I definitely couldn’t have done it without my reliable team and supportive family. A special mention goes out to my Grandma, this dream wouldn’t have become a reality without her.
