Caronavirus and Crafters

The caronavirus has impacted me as a crafter.  The dilemna is whether to register for craft shows that will be held during the rest of the year,  I will not be selling at Spring shows.  But more importantly, what about shows in the Fall and the holiday season when we crafters, like brick-and-mortar retailers, make most of our annual sales?   What are other crafters doing during this time of public health crisis? 

I have decided to devote more time to my online sales where the public, and potential customers are sheltering in place and social distancing is not a factor. Of course, the risk is that everything will be back to normal by the Fall and I have not registered for my usual craft shows.
