Writers’ Tears COVID-Buster Routine

Carlow, Ireland

Taking inspiration from James Joyce, a survivor of the 1918 Spanish Flu Pandemic, the Writers’ Tears team has been inspired to develop a daily routine for keeping COVID-19 (and lockdown boredom!) at bay.

The Writers’ Tears COVID-Buster Routine:

1) Plump the cushions on your favourite chair at home;

2) On an adjoining table – position your current read, alongside your favourite glass and your bottle of Writers’ Tears Irish Whiskey; (This lockdown may be your perfect opportunity to read Ulysses or another Joyce novel – but any good read suffices)

3) Go to sink and wash hands thoroughly with soap (20 seconds);

4) Dry hands;

5) Return to and sit in your favourite chair;

6) Pour yourself a dram of Writers’ Tears Irish Whiskey, sip and salute James Joyce;

7) Read – Relax – Sip – Repeat;

8) Stay Home, Stay Safe and stay COVID free!
