I'm on NPR!

Well, sort of. In a very minor way. A few weeks ago, I saw a call on Twitter asking people to share their last photo from the Before Times and their first photo after the start of the pandemic. I submitted mine, and my "after" photo was included in the resulting video! It's literally blink-and-you-miss-it, because it just appears for a few seconds in a montage of "working from home" images a little bit after the five minute mark, but still, pretty cool, and my name is in the credits at the end.

It would have been neat to be interviewed for the piece, but I understand why I wasn't. Still, I did think my photos told a little bit of a story. My last pre-lockdown photo was a snap I took to note the wifi password at the coffee shop where I stopped for a drink and a bit of a write on my way to FogCon; my first post-pandemic photo was to document my brand new work-from-home setup. Two writing spaces, one temporary, one far more permanent than I ever expected it to be. It was an interesting exercise, one that I recommend if you're up for it.
