Our Team
World Here is a publication that aims to inspire people through raw emotions and human connection. To do that we need a team of inspiring people who are equally passionate about the world and can see the romantic side of day to day life.
Elisha Harris
Founder and Writer for World Here
Elisha is a professional photographer, Creative Writing and Drama student and an advanced level yapper. You can categorise her as ‘that one friend that is always on some crazy side quest.’ She loves travel, music, community and all the things that make the human race special. She hopes that World Here can be a space to celebrate life and hopefully bring people together in a time where we need it most. She’s also particularly nostalgic and sentimental and likes to pretend she’s still living in 2014.

Seren Catherall-Jones
Writer for World Here
Seren loves exploring all stories across theatre, film, and literature, especially when they get a little strange, dark, or emotionally messy. You can usually find her overthinking characters, seeking a new adventure, or figuring out the most complex plot twists before there’s even any foreshadowing and that’s exactly what she brings to her writing here! When she isn’t writing, she’s either reenacting entire musicals in her living room, diving into the newest David Attenborough docu-series or wandering through Welsh mountain ranges.

Erika has written in almost every form under the sun, so when Elisha was looking for another music journalist she thought 'what's one more!' despite not knowing a middle eight form a bridge. Erika was born in Cumbria, but she was made in am-dram theatre companies and loves nothing more than a quiet night in watching Jim Henson's The Dark Crystal (again).

Erika Fayyazi-Mickle
If you don't find Ashli in a book, you'll probably find her writing about one. She has a love for all things research, discovering more about the books and shows she watches and analysing them. On the off chance she's not doing this, she is colouring, having a walk, listening to music, or playing games like Animal Crossing.
Favourite Books: His Dark Materials, Babel, and If We Were Villains
Favourite Films/TV: Good Omens, Severance and Knives Out
