Allison, This post is so helpful. I appreciate the practical suggestions, but especially the writerly support and solidarity. My nonfiction picture book, "Free for You and Me: What Our First Amendment Means," illustrated by Manu Montoya, is out this month. All launch events have been canceled, as well as a couple of conferences at which I'd planned on presenting. I'm working with my local indie bookstore (which has a special deal this month of free delivery in-state) to offer signed and personalized copies to those who order online from the bookstore ... and hoping that parents and teachers and others will be buying plenty of books. I'm also working to review and promote (and buy!) the March/April releases of other book creators. And hoping we all treat each other well as we face this crisis together. Thank you!
