In "The Art of Productive Procrastination," I invite you to embrace the paradoxical notion that procrastination can be a tool for productivity. As a philosopher and self-proclaimed procrastinator, I have spent my career exploring the ways in which we can leverage our tendency to put things off in order to achieve greater success and fulfillment in our lives. Through a series of witty and insightful essays, I offer a practical guide to the art of productive procrastination. Drawing on my own experiences and the latest research in psychology and neuroscience, I show you how to harness the power of procrastination to fuel your creativity, boost your productivity, and enhance your overall well-being. With humor and wisdom, I explore the many ways in which we procrastinators manage to get things done, from the power of deadlines and the benefits of multitasking to the joys of distraction and the importance of taking breaks. Whether you're a chronic procrastinator or just looking for new ways to enhance your productivity, "The Art of Productive Procrastination" is the perfect guide to help you achieve your goals while enjoying the journey.

The Exciting, True, and Adventurous Slave Narratives of Three Fugitive Slaves: William W. Brown, John Thompson, and Henry Watson

Large Print Edition: The Life of John Thompson, A Fugitive Slave: Containing His History of 25 Years in Bondage, and His Providential Escape. Written by Himself

MY DEAR FRIEND: --I heartily thank you for the privilege of reading the manuscript of your Narrative. I have read it with deep interest and strong emotion. I am much mistaken if it be not greatly successful and eminently useful. It presents a different phase of the infernal slave-system from that portrayed in the admirable story of Mr. Douglass, and gives us a glimpse of its hideous cruelties in other portions of its domain. Your opportunities of observing the workings of this accursed system have been singularly great. Your experiences in the Field, in the House, and especially on the River in the service of the slave-trader, Walker, have been such as few individuals have had;--no one, certainly, who has been competent to describe them. What I have admired, and marvelled at, in your Narrative, is the simplicity and calmness with which you describe scenes and actions which might well "move the very stones to rise and mutiny" against the National Institution which makes them possible. You will perceive that I have made very sparing use of your flattering permission to alter what you had written. To correct a few errors, which appeared to be merely clerical ones, committed in the hurry of composition, under unfavorable circumstances, and to suggest a few curtailments, is all that I have ventured to do. I should be a bold man, as well as a vain one, if I should attempt to improve your descriptions of what you have seen and suffered. Some of the scenes are not unworthy of De Foe himself.
