Monday Moments: Childlike Genius

Introduced By Holly King We’re already two weeks into 2022 and the second year of Write On! Extra, which, I must say, has grown exponentially for such a young project. When we are young, though; that’s when the most creative ideas come about and we write with the most freedom. So, ...

Monday Moments: Spreading Christmas Cheer

Introduced By Holly King The final month of 2021 rolls in and people seem to be needing Christmas more than ever. Is it just me, or have stores been selling Christmas items, and have friends put up their decorations, earlier this year? Perhaps more than any other UK holiday, Christmas is ...

Monday Moments: Wonderful Witches

Introduced By Holly King If you’re a woman, you might have been called ‘a bit of a witch’ by someone, or been told to be wary of that woman over there, because ‘she’s a witch’. It’s a pejorative term, and witches across time, cultures and books, are the archetype of an ...

Monday Moments: Easter 2021

Introduced By Holly King Happy Easter! Immediately (after images of chocolate and bunnies with baskets of pastel-coloured eggs), I thought back to this time last year. Write On! Extra was in its infancy and my fourth Monday Moments page went up on Easter Monday 2020. Who could have predicted the following ...
