#NewThisDay Writing From My Photo Stream

Such a good night sleep. Gratitude. A break from home routine. I have coffee and work at my desk. I have been reading poems for Passager Journal, Winter Issue, at their invitation, and my selections are due by the 30th. Out of the approximately 150 poems I’ve read, I must choose five! I am enjoying this process, and find that I am determined to finish today, and I do. I am resting today. A shorter walk, and it’s quite pleasant outside. Tonight, I drive to Unity Village, about a half hour away, for the opening of the Power of Words Conference. Going from a day of virtual silence to a conference. Nice to see people I know, and the presenters tonight, Marianela Medrano, who gave a talk on mindful writing, and Vi Tran, a singer, songwriter and storyteller, performed. I was so glad for this evening’s inspiration. Tomorrow I return and will present my workshop. And tonight, sleep well.
