Book excerpt: In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic brought the world to its knees. When we weren’t sheltering in place, we were advised to wear masks, wash our hands, and practice social distancing. We watched in horror as medical personnel worked around the clock to care for the sick and dying. Businesses were shuttered, travel stopped, workers were furloughed, and markets dropped. And people continued to die. Amid all this uncertainty, writers and artists from around the world continued to create comics, commenting directly on how individuals, societies, governments, and markets reacted to the worldwide crisis. COVID Chronicles: A Comics Anthology collects more than sixty such short comics from a diverse set of creators, including indie powerhouses, mainstream artists, Ignatz and Eisner Award winners, and media cartoonists. In narrative styles ranging from realistic to fantastic, they tell stories about adjusting to working from home, homeschooling their kids, missing birthdays and weddings, and being afraid just to leave the house. They probe the failures of government leaders and the social safety net. They dig into the racial bias and systemic inequities that this pandemic helped bring to light. We see what it’s like to get the virus and live to tell about it, or to stand by helplessly as a loved one passes. At times heartbreaking and at others hopeful and humorous, these comics express the anger, anxiety, fear, and bewilderment we feel in the era of COVID-19. Above all, they highlight the power of art and community to help us make sense of a world in crisis, reminding us that we are truly all in this together. The comics in this collection have been generously donated by their creators. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this volume are being donated by the publisher to the Book Industry Charitable Foundation (Binc) in support of comics shops, bookstores, and their employees who have been adversely affected by the pandemic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The COVID CHRONICLES and More” is a collection on non-fiction articles related to the COVID pandemic, plus various short plays and other writings by Dr. David Holcombe. The COVID pandemic monopolized the nation and the world of public health for over two and a half years (from March 2020 to October 2022), resulted in over a million U.S. deaths. Following these published non-fiction articles gives a unique historical and scientific perspective on the events from a local public health perspective. The following plays deal with a variety of topics, including office dynamics, letter writing and teacher-student relationships in a French class. The collection ends with a few miscellaneous works, some of them more or less autobiographical. Given the diversity, there should be something for everyone ranging from the scientific to the theatrical.

I believe what many people need during these stressful times is to hear from people who feel just like they do, which is why I decided to compile this book of personal pandemic stories from around the world. With more than two dozen submissions from Canada, the United States, China, Kenya, Taiwan, Australia and Jamaica, this book is a reminder that we each have a story to tell, and when we share our stories, our thoughts and even our fears, it reminds those of us who need to hear it the most that even though we may not be physically together, you are not alone! No one really knows exactly what our new normal will be when this pandemic is finally behind us, but we know we will overcome it together by staying socially separated yet socially connected in heart and in spirit. I hope you enjoy these stories as much as I have. Thank you, Kenn

And it brought out the warrior in each one of us, who taught us to survive and hold on to hope- a COVID warrior. I have penned down my own experiences during this period, and what these have taught me. This work is dedicated to all the COVID warriors out there- we shall fight, we shall overcome and we shall live to see yet another day!
