Apologies for the quick follow-up. We heard from a few people that the link to the Pandemic Artifacts book got lost. Here is the direct link to the PDF: https://stephanieheitpoetry.files.wordpress.com/2021/08/turtle-disco-pandemic-artifacts-from-the-zoomshell.pdf Hopefully, this will work better (as we can't attach a PDF here). Just email back if you have trouble with it.
