Loved ones,
When you publish a book, you think, What’s the worst that can happen? Even my overactive mind couldn’t have guessed: Pandemic! Due to the threat of Coronavirus, my events for Parakeet (publication June 2nd) have been canceled or postponed. It’s okay, what we need right now are medical professionals. My friend Adam is an ER doctor in Oakland, Yael is at Johns Hopkins, Laura at Einstein, Nicole at Jefferson, Natasa at Bronx Medical, Lea, Ricardo, Meghan, Jennifer, Sara–every medical professional working to heal and comfort is my hero. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
People are dying. Art can wait. Art knows when to wait. Art is allowed to wait. As artists, though I know (oh how I know) art bestows a kind of breath, we must never mistake a novel, a painting, a poem, a song, a film, for a ventilator.
A book represents years of an author’s life. Please consider pre-ordering a book from one of the Covid Cohort of authors whose book tours are being canceled, a few listed below.
And and! Lovely people are putting together virtual online readings which means I get to meet more of you where you live, so to speak. I’ll keep my Happenings page mercilessly up to date.
I hope you’ll join me in the distance that is not really a distance.
Until we’re all back in the sunshine,
Marie-Helene
