Need an activity to reduce your isolation? Would your Book Club like an online author talk/reading? It would be a mentally healthy activity and help break up the social distancing.
I’d love to Zoom in and talk! Using Zoom is very easy. A webcam is nice, but not necessary. People can even join us via the telephone.
Let’s schedule an online event!
