Hi friends,

Only 3 more episodes remaining of Wayside - a serial novel for the Covid Conscious community till the story draws to a close. They're coming your way soon!

In the meantime, I'm excited to announce that audio versions of the first two episodes have arrived!

I'm making episodes 1 & 2 publicly available for a short time. Readers/listeners will need to subscribe to my newsletter to continue getting links to future audio episodes. (If you received this email directly, you'll be able to keep accessing all Wayside content).

Curious about the inspiration behind Wayside? Here's my letter from the author.

For episodes 1 & 2, use the links below to find both audio and text versions.

Episode 1: The Auction

Episode 2: The Beginning

Audio versions of episode 3 and all subsequent episodes are forthcoming.

Thanks to everyone for your enthusiasm and support for the Wayside story. I look forward to hearing what you think of the audio versions!

My most recent essay, The Edge of a Rainstorm: A Necessary Conversation About the Arts and Entertainment for the CC Community, delves into our community's relationship with the performing arts. Career performers must often choose between protecting themselves and others from airborne pathogens, or protecting their careers. It's a big problem with no easy fix, but I've got a suggested starting place and some thoughts about how we can do more to support our CC peers in the performing arts.

If you're in the mood for some laughs next month, join us for Goin' Viral: Moms & Grads edition. It's the most fun comedy game show on Zoom, and you, the audience, get to play along! This event will include live ASL interpretation.

Goin Viral comedy game show poster May 16 6 pm ET, 5 pm CT, 4 pm MT, 3 pm PT over Zoom. Two comedians, Danielle Yokley and Derek Delmar face off in an epic battle of competitive games with a littel help from the audience and plenty of jokes along the way. Free but priceless. Tips are welcome. With ASL interpretation. Poster has a blue background with pics of the two comedians. Danielle is a young woman wearing a denim jacket. She has long dark hair and is smiling. Derek Delmar is a young man in a blue and white plaid shirt with with short brown hair and is smiling.
