I am procrastinating heavily right now. Sometimes it’s very hard to get started on a new piece of writing. I have many notes for a short story I plan to submit to my writing group this week, but I’m having trouble actually opening Microsoft Word and settling in to create.<\/p>\n
So, instead, I wanted to remind you all to go to the post office and buy the stamps with picture-book animals<\/a> on them, including characters by Dr. Seuss, Maurice Sendak, Eric Carle, Leo Leonni, and others. They’re just cool is all. Thanks to the SCBWI<\/a> e-mail newsletter for the tip.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I am procrastinating heavily right now.
