About Christopher Shevlin
trying to keep writing, despite long covid
Hello, and thanks very much to everyone who’s contributed cups of tea here.
I particularly appreciate it because I’ve had long covid since May 2022. It is an absolute bastard, as it unpredictably turns off vital components of me, such as my brain, my physical energy, my emotional stability, and my basic ability to function as a human. It’s really not ideal, as I was using all those things.
I'm trying hard to figure it out, but it's difficult.
Because of the long covid, my fourth book took ages to write, so my sales really dropped. And I’ve lost all my freelancing work, as you’d imagine. Also, I'm running out of money and have no idea how I'm going to survive. It's terrifying. So, if you’re outraged at how little you paid for my books, feel slightly uneasy about your growing wealth, or would just like me to write another book, then I’d be very grateful if you could spare the price of a nice cup of tea.
Regardless of that, I hope you have the best day that is humanly possible. And thanks for reading this (and my books too).
Chris
