My journey through Covid isolation has been made so much better by the writers, and the podcasters (and seasons of English TV on Britbox). As a retired person, my outer world has shrunk, but my inner world has been so enriched by folks like the entire Swisher clan, favorites and funny videos on Twitter, a few choice journalists, and authors. As I get my 2nd shot tomorrow my world can slowly start to open up, but I made it through. Thank you so much for what you do!

Thanks Amanda for writing this poignant piece. I feel less in the woods having read it. I’ve been procrastinating more lately and experiencing an empty numbness and your words brought me back. I don’t agree with your kind friend about being behind in your career. It seems while you are focusing on being a mom you are savoring being in the moment. This makes your writing uniquely observant, vulnerable and sweet. In hindsight I wish I had savored that time more. ps, perhaps charge the people who can afford to pay?
