Our June issue is at the printer, which means today is the last day to subscribe if you want to get it in the mail.

Please forgive a little promo, but maybe it& #39;s exactly what you want in your mailbox in 3 weeks! It has pandemic writing, yes, but only in a certain way: https://twitter.com/seleross/status/1264228510358519809">https://twitter.com/seleross/...

We asked writers to think about what they, personally, have realized during this strange time - about their own life or about something close to them.

Got back beautiful essays from amazing people!

. @snolen on how this made her learn again, years later, from the HIV crisis she covered; @DonovanWoods on how making music from afar made him realize the magic of group work. @WordsandGuitar on that jarring feeling when it& #39;s hard to stop online shopping.

. @KevinChong1975 on how apocalypse writing is over and writers of the future are gonna have to get their own literary devices; @picardonhealth with a Letter From Montreal about how Mont-Royal always delivers, no matter what& #39;s happening around it.

Long, great features from @RyanAllenb about how the gutted healthcare system runs on people& #39;s love and guilt, from @franky_says about how Canadian farming turned into an untiable Gordian knot.

@ZanShow with an amazing essay about...other people& #39;s faces...that I cannot describe.

Short story by @lethal_heroine, poems by @ahfaulkner & Tara McGowan-Ross,

a photo essay by Kate Hutchinson shot completely around her own kitchen table;

@KasiaJuno walks around empty MTL and reviews the aesthetic; Chloe Lalonde plays a video game where you just walk to the dep.

Also a great comic and a bunch of beautiful standalone art made by illustrators during quarantine.
