Life During A Pandemic

The Pine Knot News has a new page designed to provide some light in these troubling times for the community. It’s called “Life During a Pandemic.”

How are you coping with the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures put in place to stop its spread? We’ve already heard some encouraging words from readers and want to hear more. Do you have a moment of kindness to relate? Or do you have a simple observation as we, in essence, shelter in our homes? Is there any advice you’d like to offer Pine Knot News readers – coping mechanisms that have worked for you? Recipes? Ways to keep you from climbing your walls? Poems? Prose?

Whatever might be on your mind, we’d like to hear it. Send your thoughts to [email protected] or go to our Facebook page, click the “Like” button, and make a comment under this pinned post. You can read comments there and also a selection of them in the printed edition every Friday. Check our website as well at PineKnot News.com.

Also, send pictures, artwork or other visuals to accompany your thoughts or stories of life in these times.
