Q is for Quarantine: a Coronavirus Alphabet
The word for “A” isn’t very funny, but it might be relatable.

In March 2020, I became sick with a suspected case of long COVID. On the day after my quarantine ended, I received a handmade get-well card from a family member. The front of the card read “Q is for Quarantine,” and sparked the idea of creating a humorous pandemic-themed alphabet, starring Lab Mice.
Cartooning has helped fill some very long, hard days since then. Finding creativity and humor in the midst of pandemic chaos feels like winning a small victory over COVID. Ultimately, I would like to turn this project into a book.
