Your work has been and remains a serious inspiration to me. You were one of the first creative people I knew imagining and creating new ways of evolving the ecology. I look to Book Post as a beacon!

I appreciate this note, and though I have actually been fortunate to write for Book Post, I wanted to join this conversation as a reader. Like others, I am glad and curious when I see something from BookPost come in as a respite from not only the news cycle, but the recent stream of cancellations, closings, delays for so many events, organizations and watering holes of all kinds. Of course, this is a good time for reading, and I have found myself reading differently, drawn more to fantasy and other world-building literature as well. I have also found that re-reading old favorite books has been a comfort over the last couple of weeks. I'll also admit to reading beloved children's books from my childhood or my children's childhoods (I literally re-read "The Borrowers" last week) as I have done before when going through difficult times. I highly suggest children's books, and there are so many great ones. I find them especially comforting for middle-of-the-night wakefulness and anxiety. Your work and voice are indeed a light in a dark time, Ann. Thank you.
