When We Made Heroes: Lives, Loss and Courage in the Age of COVID

The coronavirus pandemic has proven to be a once-in-a-lifetime ordeal – everyday people have experienced unprecedented personal anguish through the death of loved ones and the loss of social relationships and personal livelihoods.

Each of us has a unique story about this experience – a story that speaks to the hero in us all. A story of our lives, our losses, and of those things that kept us going through a time when so many of us felt isolated and alone.

As a result – and from the loss of our own loved ones in this crisis – we at Essential Media sensed a growing need for works that inspire readers and help rebuild lives. Contributors whose submissions appear within an Essential Media title receive a portion of every qualified sale.
