You’re in The Write (Right?) Spot!

Among the many unpredictable issues that arose alongside the pandemic, a lack of interpersonal connection is arguably the most significant impact that I have experienced. Adding onto this, the imprint that the virtual workspace has made in our lives has been a quick change for myself, in which, I found it difficult to adapt my entire life to correspond with these changes. From school to work, and even socializing with my friends and loved ones, this digital era has overhauled the trajectory of all I know. As such, it is truly refreshing to be a part of the team here at The Write Spot
