The Spring Equinox and stay-at-home orders from our Washington State Governor came days apart. This inspired me to begin panically printing a letterpress printed pandemic-themed post each week for elders, people living alone, front-line workers, artists, and anyone by request, once a week for eleven weeks, and now once per month. I wanted to stay connected through the hand made object. The mood of the Pandemic Posts changed with the killing of George Floyd (PP #9). My PP mailing list goes to over 100 people in the U.S. and internationally. Appreciation has returned ten-fold.
