My friend Margaret Simon shared Georgia Heard’s Substack with me, and I love reading about her travels and writing experiences – and her book recommendations. You can see her posts here.
I love that Georgia offers writing calendars that work for both children and adults. Here is her February Valentine Mini Writing Calendar, inspiring us to fall in love with the everyday. I’ll be starting this today and walking with Georgia through the week. Join me with a journal and a pen!
Day 3 asks us to notice light and how it lands, how it moves, and then to write about one moment of light that stayed with us.

in my reading room
throws a morning sunbeam
onto the wall
opposite my bed
its tiny square panes
within look like
buttery waffles
syrupy and warm
drizzled in sunshine
