Covid Seasons

Covid Seasons is the story of three couples and how they cope, or don't cope, with the year from hell.

The year 2020: the pandemic, masks and sequestration, death counts, mis-information, George Floyd's murder, Black Lives Matter, a nasty political campaign, and a president who might not leave.

Some Survive, Some Don't.

Julie, a model quality blonde, is a police lieutenant. She's got a take charge personality, a drinking problem, and she's sexually aggressive. Her mixed-race husband, Mark, is a lawyer on hiatus, a staunch Democrat, and, in affairs of the heart, pretty much clueless.



Sherri is an evangelical Christian who unequivocally supports Trump. Her husband, John, is a libertarian who holds grudges and plans to seek revenge against those who have wronged him.

Emjay (Maria Juanita) is an attractive Latina who is disillusioned with her childless marriage and has chosen to tolerate her husband's infidelity. Scott, her husband, is a silver-tongued businessman who has his roving eye on Julie.

The story begins January 30th: they discuss Trump's impeachment, Kobe Bryant's tragic death, and this new virus, which has claimed its first victim in Arizona.

The story ends January 6, 2021: Covid has killed members, family, and friends. The survivors sit together, talking about the future. A few feet away, a group of Trump supporters, watching on TV, cheer as a mob storms the Capitol.

Readers of Covid Seasons will be reminded of their own feelings and experiences dealing with the pandemic, the politics, and the racial tensions that were hallmarks of the year that never seemed to end.
