26 October 2022 News, WriteOn Showcase

By Diya Padiyar Welcome to my final Showcase page. And I still have so much more to say about the theme of home! I'd like to begin by exploring homes in a context I've always been curious about: abandoned houses. Our ancestral home, where my father grew up, is right across the ...

Showcase: Questher-The Lord On My Side + Love Me! + The Wind’s Embrace

19 October 2022 News, WriteOn Showcase

Showcase: Looking For Home + Where Is Home + Back Home + Milkshake Of The Mind + Isolation

12 October 2022 News, WriteOn Showcase

By Diya Padiyar Last week, we explored the theme of 'Home' and how it means different things to people, especially teenagers like me, who not only conceive things differently but whose ideas and notions keep evolving. I believe this is very apt for our theme. The definition of 'Home' not only changes ...

05 October 2022 News, WriteOn Showcase

By Diya Padiyar Home has always been my favourite subject to write about. Simply because it means different things to everyone and yet, it evokes the same feelings of love and nostalgia. Through the month of October, I wish to explore this theme of home and homeliness. The land I call my ...

Hi, I’m Juneha Chowdhury, your Showcase editor for September. In the penultimate week of submissions on our 'Worlds Apart' theme, I have some stunning pieces of writing to showcase. But before I do this, I'd like to reflect on what has been another sombre week, with the funeral of Queen ...

Showcase: The Co-Existence Equation + Top Deck On The Number 5 – Journeys – A Journey

14 September 2022 News, WriteOn Showcase

Hi. I’m Juneha Chowdhury, your Showcase editor for September. We've had some great submissions this month to fit our 'Worlds Apart' theme. But first, I'd like to reflect on the sad news we had last Thursday of Her Majesty's passing. It is appropriate, I think, that the pieces I’ve chosen ...

For all us ...
