October Letter from the Editor


 LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Dear Readers,

After a much-needed summer of relaxation, travelling and tanning, we begin another school year, bracing ourselves for heaps of work. Over the two months of vacation, the writers of NSHAHS poured their original thoughts out onto their computer screens, compiling essays, poems, short stories and even some novels.
This first issue of the second volume of The Written Voice is a collection of students’ most recent creative works. It includes creative essays and stories, contest entries, a novel and even a reflective poem on Rosh HaShana and Yom Kippur, two of the most important holidays of the Jewish religion.
Each student has brought their best work to the table for a second year of The Written Voice. So take a break out of your hectic schedules filled with writing essays, studying for SATs and completing early-decision applications to read the pieces and excerpts featured in this October issue. Leave your comments and feedback on our blog site and send us any work that you wish to be considered for publication in this literary magazine. And remember- there is always time for a creative writing break.  
                                                                                   

Sincerely,
Anna Hardcastle
Editor-in-Chief
