Spellbinder is a quarterly literary and art magazine based in Durham which celebrates emerging poets, short story writers, essayists, reviewers and visual artists from all backgrounds around the world. Spellbinder was founded in 2020 by students who met at the Durham University Creative Writing Society. They promote the works of those who are at the beginning of their literary careers, especially those who test the boundaries of media, form and convention. The magazine was established with the intention of capturing experimentalism, originality and innovation as it arises in the artistic and literary worlds.
