I Had A ‘Pandemic Relationship’ With 3 People — But Probably Not How You Think
The author and her writing group friend Sara together on their writers retreat. Each week, we’d spend a bit of time catching up about our lives before working on a writing prompt and having one member of the group sharing a piece of writing for a workshop-style discussion. “I guess I never expected that you’d be so tall!” Throughout our retreat, we journaled, wrote new material, and edited one another’s work, but mostly, we spent time together. We still leave updates in the group chat, call and text one another, and cheer for each other’s wins. My pandemic relationship ― my writing group, my squad, my friends ― ushered me through the darkest hour I’ve been alive to see.
