Description
In some cases when a website uses plugins with ShortCode the shortcode_autop method will return an empty string.
Below is sample content that gets an empty string returned when passed through shortcode_autop.
<p>Writers are a diverse bunch. Quirky. Independent. Opinionated. In other words, hard to buy for. If you are trapped in a relationship with a writer,<em> get out</em>. If you can’t, attempt to tame your writer with the liberal application of gifts they will appreciate. Here I have gathered a few ideas that range from classic to new-fangled. Each is sure to melt almost any writer’s dark, cold heart.</p>
<p>[amazon_link id="0547055323" target="_blank" ]<img src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/417-fWjfIYL._SL160_.jpg" alt="The Best American Short Stories 2010 (The Best American Series (R))" />amazon_link What writer doesn’t want to have their work end up in a “best” collection? Yes, even the ones who scoff at commercialism and popular opinion do. The Best American Short Stories series has been running for a good long time but the collections are kept fresh with yearly guest editors. My favorite feature of these books are the writer’s notes — insightful comments from the writers themselves about their stories. Though the notes<br />
were more essential in the days before the Internet provided instantaneous transmission of a writer’s every 140-character-long thought, they still provide a worthwhile virtual mini-panel on the state of the art in short fiction. If your writer leans more toward genre fiction, check out other collections such as the venerable [amazon_link id="0312608977" target="_blank" ] Year’s Best Science Fictionamazon_link .</p>
<p>[amazon_link id="B002FQJT3Q" target="_blank" ]<img src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/417XQ0XwQuL._SL160_.jpg" alt="Kindle 3G Wireless Reading Device, Free 3G + Wi-Fi, 6" Display, Graphite, 3G Works Globally - Latest Generation" />amazon_link Digital publishing is an unstoppable freight train charging towards us. Get on board or get squashed to jelly beneath the steel wheels of progress. The Kindle is probably the cheapest and most hassle-free way to hop on board and see what all the fuss is about. The screen is a pleasure to read in bright light, and the smaller size Kindle adds nothing to the weight or bulk of your messenger bag. There are a few quirks. You can’t read in bad light (just like a book) — the screen does not produce any light on it’s own. The smaller Kindle is really too small to effectively display PDFs. If your writer spends a majority of their time squinting at screenplay PDFs on their laptop, then go for the [amazon_link id="B002GYWHSQ" target="_blank" ]Kindle DXamazon_link .</p>
<p>[amazon_link id="B00138CX30" target="_blank" ]<img src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51lwiSZcWcL._SL160_.jpg" alt="Time Out Of Mind" />amazon_link Music to write by. Normally, writing music should be instrumental only — can’t have too many words competing for brainspace. But there is something very atmospheric about the tracks on Bob Dylan’s [amazon_link id="B00138CX30" target="_blank" ] Time Out of Mindamazon_link and the vocals are subdued if plaintive. The track “Not Dark Yet” was featured in the ultimate writer movie, [amazon_link id="B001ZS5CD6" target="_blank" ]Wonder Boysamazon_link If your writer’s work is filled with angst and wounded characters, this is the record to spin. For a more cinematic, epic, sweeping soundtrack, try [amazon_link id="B003DUA56S" target="_blank" ]Clash of the Titansamazon_link . Terrible movie, good generic action-movie score.</p>
<p>[amazon_link id="8883701127" target="_blank" ]<img src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41nEt%2BZMYsL._SL160_.jpg" alt="Moleskine Ruled Notebook Large" />amazon_link Unassuming and built to last — we may live in the digital age, but when paper is called for the Moleskine notebook provides hundreds of durably bound, creamy off-white pages just asking to be filled with Great Ideas. The spine can be bent clear back on itself without breaking the binding or loosening a single page. The covers are stiff but flexible cardboard and covered with water-resistant oilcloth. Not flashy, but definitely classy. There’s a reason these things are almost a writer’s cliche.</p>
<p>[amazon_link id="B000GTR2F6" target="_blank" ]<img src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41GSZCYWKYL._SL160_.jpg" alt="Keurig B-70 B70 Platinum Single-Cup Home Brewing System" />amazon_link Most writers juggle multiple hats. Writing often has to wait to the very end of the day. That, or it has to come first thing in the morning, long before any reasonable person would think of getting out of bed. It’s no wonder many writers, especially those first starting out, require a constant energy boost. I keep the [amazon_link id="B000GTR2F6" target="_blank" ]Keurig Platinum amazon_link on my desk. It’s an essential piece of equipment, right alongside my printer and external hard drive. Making a fresh cup of coffee takes about one minute. Thanks to the self-contained filter cups, there is no mess to clean up. At all. Also good for tea, iced coffee, and provides instant hot water for hot cocoa or soup mix.</p>
<p>[amazon_link id="B001TIJWKQ" target="_blank" ]<img src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41nsx4792FL._SL160_.jpg" alt="Crumpler The Considerable Embarrassment Laptop Bag, Brown/Red" />amazon_link And where is your writer supposed to put all the new awesome stuff you buy them? A briefcase is far too corporate and a backpack is far too Kindergarten. A writer has one foot in both these worlds and so does Crumpler. Witness the honestly named [amazon_link id="B001TIJWKQ" target="_blank" ]Considerable Embarrassment Laptop Bagamazon_link . This bag holds a 15″ laptop with room left over for books, magazines, moleskins and other writerly essentials. Or step up to the even roomier [amazon_link id="B001TN6S8K" target="_blank" ]Dreadful Embarassmentamazon_link , meant<br />
for 17″ laptops (always buy one size larger bag than you think you need). I’ve had a Crumpler camera bag for a couple of years and it’s proven to be tough, well-built and rock-solid.</p>
<p>Of course, if you really love your writer you might consider gifting them with a Crumpler bag stuffed with <em>all</em> the items mentioned here. Your writer may be confused by this strange new emotion called <em>joy</em>, but it would only be a matter of time before the Great American Novel/Screenplay/Haiku is produced.</p>
