In April 2020, we invited writers in Quebec to submit a story of a single day during the strange, uneasy time of coronavirus and pandemic, of social distancing and self isolation, of lockdown and quarantine.
We’re thrilled to announce that these stories have been gathered in Chronicling the Days: Dispatches from a Pandemic (Guernica Press). To learn more and buy the book, please visit https://www.guernicaeditions.com/title/9781771836579.
Please also join us on the QWF FB Community page, and let the authors know if their words resonated.
This piece is by Anita Anand, writing on 11 April 2020.
I’m alarmed by everything everyone else is alarmed by, but I don’t mind working from home, because: introversion. I don’t miss commuting, dealing with difficult people, the tangible, physical pressure of groups of students. Feeling blessed: my husband’s home too, and rescues me from techno-bugs when I teach on-line.
