May is the time to PLAY!

April passed for me so quickly. It was insanity. In that time, I completed my Masters coursework and my first book for young adults, Dance Wars.

Now that May is here...it's time to PLAY. I know that people have been feeling the constriction around the quarantine. If I feel it, I know other people are. I had a day where I was just really feeling super constricted and finally just slapped on a Christmas movie, made a hot chocolate, and grabbed a Christmas coloring book and pretended that the reason for staying inside was because it was cold outside and we were getting ready for the holidays. I fully believe in the power of make-believe. The feeling of coziness I was able to conjure overcame the feeling of constriction I was feeling..and it lasted well after the crayons were put away.

It is time to play!
