“I didn’t realize the world that used to run on cars now runs on Zoom” (Writer Marilyn Crockett, age 79). Comfy in my writer’s nest and connecting with the world via Zoom, I sometimes wonder if I’ll ever want to venture forth again. I teeter on the edge of agoraphobia. Then I do my tri-weekly grocery shopping and going out seems normal once more … until, twenty-four hours later, it begins to feel weird and scary again. Apparently, what I have dubbed “coroneurosis” isn’t unique to me. For more thoughts about writing, see REFLECTIONS.
