More Preternatural Investigations: post-pandemic journal

A creative writing and journal project. Although my tales are rather fanciful, I have still tried to express what my mind has gone through during the years of Covid-19. I was particularly interested in what estrangement does to us—and in particular to me. As a legally blind individual I have always felt a bit isolated in that I have never been able to drive. And yet I know that now 83, I have had a wonderful life—the experience that art can give us where we explore the interior of existence. I think I have mentioned to you that as a child that my parents read to me the great works of literature for an hour every night. And this continued into adulthood. As to my journal, I have already written much of the next two issues which I will call now a "Post-pandemic Journal" and focus on how life has changed with the epidemic behind us.
