#WordWeavers Jan 20
Do you feel the Covid pandemic has affected your writing?
In a perverse way, the pandemic helped me find the determination to finish my first book. In march 2020, FB snuck the cartoon below into my feed. I made a stink about it since it implied FB was keeping tabs on my projects while making fun of me for it. Well, we all had a good laugh emoji, but then a friend showed genuine interest in my book and it pushed me to finish by the end of the year.
And today, I quit FB!
