Look To The Artists
What is giving people pleasure right now, in this time of crisis? Stories. On screens, on paper, through speakers, in videos. Stories will save us.
And you, as a writer, have a part to play in that salvation.
Resources for Being At Home
If you have resources for storytellers, writers, parents, teachers, bored adults, in this time of house-bound-ness, please share them in the comments.
Me? I’m watching a lot of zoo and aquarium live feeds 😉
