Peter Brown author of The Wild Robot
It's ok to take a step back from writing if you hit a roadblock, in fact, you might actually get more inspiration when you aren't thinking about. Go read a book or watch a movie, or maybe make a carrot cake.
Peter Brown is the New York Times best-selling author of The Wild Robot and The Creepy Carrots, as well as Mr. Tiger Goes Wild and he sat down with our student interviewers to talk about writing, pets, and desserts.
You can find more information about Peter on his website at https://www.peterbrownstudio.com/ and you can follow him on Instagram, Facebook, and X
