COVID-19 and the Writer




We're all aware that COVID-19 is here.  Everybody is going into quarantine except for emergency responders and people that absolutely have to go out.  People are scared.  Their jobs are at risk.  The federal government is coming to the rescue.  But how long will this contagion be a threat?

There are two anti-malarial drugs that show great promised in treating the infection and are commonly available.  They have already been approved by the FDA- and that's a good thing.  We can only cross our fingers as to the testing outcome.

But the bottom line, is everyone, even writers are being quarantined.

This does give us the opportunity to write, though, and, while I'm not to happy about the COVID-19 infection, I have to make the best of it.  So I will write.  The wife has stocked us up with provisions for three months, and we don't have to go out, so we'll wait and see.

But, in the meantime, I will write.
