The Newer Normal

Dedication to a wonderful and generous artist and friend. Mariet Van der Heide, and to Steven D. Prince, literary smartass extraordinaire, caption-wizard, and the man I love with all my heart.

This book contains 100 of the daily drawings that I have been sending to friends since the publication of my earlier collection of drawings that I called: Stop Screaming: How Some of Us Made It Through Covid 19.

Now that the pandemic is in our rearview mirror, we are free to worry about other aspects of life-some serious, some not so serious. I offer this new book both for fun and as a worry-guide of sorts, as well as a reminder that even in this newer normal, anyone who can share a laugh is never alone.
