Writing can be a difficult pursuit at the best of times but there’s nothing like a global pandemic to kill the creative urge. Those who have struggled to even look at a keyboard in the last six months will envy Michael Harding, who wrote his latest memoir What is Beautiful in the Sky during lockdown.
“Of all the books I’ve done, to be honest with you, it completely wrote itself. I didn’t have to make any choices. I started on page one and I just wrote it,” he says.
