The Art of Productive Procrastination

I am the Queen of Procrastinators. I will find all sorts of things to do to avoid writing. What I now realize is that I'm NOT avoiding, but incorporating my work into other parts of my life. If I am stuck on a character in a novel or a line in a poem, I use other creative aspects of my life to work through them.

If there is interest, I would love to haul all this "stuff" out of the closet, show it off, and talk about it. It runs the gamut from collage work and decorated files, handmade books, all the way up to projects that plug in the wall and will blow your fuse.

Without sounding like a total whiner, I need to know if there's interest in this as a session - because hauling all this stuff up to Mercy Hill will be a lot of work for Boone. :) I realize this is a WRITERS conference, and some of my pieces do not appear as such with a first look, but with closer inspection, they might inspire you in your own procrastination.

Thoughts? Questions!?
Care to challenge my self-appointed title of "Queen"?
I'd love to hear from you-

Yes, yes, yes! to this session. Will there be time for knighting of your subjects, O, Queen of not only Procrastination but also of Creativity?

I'm pretty sure that in my

I'm pretty sure that in my vast array of goodies, there is a handcrafted, rhinestone-studded sceptor for just this purpose! I'm busy dusting off (it's fairy dust) all my show-and-tell items and stuffing them in my car.

For those of you graciously volunteering to help that day, be very cautious of checking the box that says "Pack Mule"...
