Today is a day to think about the women who have influenced who you have become, or who you would like to become.
What better way to honor those women than to write about them.
So, for today’s free writing, write about a woman you admire, or one who has been an influence in your life.

I think all of us have felt some impact from the attack on Ukraine.
For me, it is shocking and horrifying that this has happened. I want to help, yet no amount of help will undo the harm that has already been inflicted.
However, there are organizations on the ground in and around Ukraine who are helping. This article from the Washington Post includes several.
Also, reserving AirBnB rentals in the Ukraine is a way to get money to individuals still inside the country (at least it was late last week).
As this war continues, there will probably be various ways that open for a short time and then have to shut down.
For today’s free write, take some time to consider what this war means for you, and also what you can do to help.
And please pray for Ukraine and all of the innocent people in harm’s way.
Okay. Are you ready? Get set … write!
Hey there!
Have you ever heard of National Oreo Day? Well apparently that is today. I love Oreos. They are one of my favorite store-bought cookies. But a national day? I guess almost anything can have its own day now.
What do you think? Do Oreos deserve a national (or worldwide) day? Although, I’ve heard it said that Oreos in Europe do not taste the same as Oreos in the US. Not sure about other countries, but if you don’t like them, they may not be the same as the little round bits of yumminess that we have here in the US.
Anyway, set your timer and write about Oreos, or National Days, or whatever your heart desires.

One of my favorite experiences with wildlife is seeing the Mountain Goats at Glacier National Park in Montana, USA. If you ever get the opportunity to go, take the trail from Logan Pass to the Hidden Lake Overlook.
Near the overlook, there are often mountain goats rummaging around in the rocks and bushes. They come very close and seem so tame that you really have to remind yourself that they are wild animals and should be dealt with using wariness and caution.
Glacier National Park has also been the place where we have seen grizzly bears, moose, and many other species of wildlife. Someday we would like to see a wolf (from a very great distance).
What about you? What experiences have you had with wildlife?

Hello everyone! It is Read Across America Day, so I thought I’d ask about your favorite genre for reading in leisure time.
I read all different types of books, but my favorite when relaxing is historical romance. What about you? I’d love to hear what your favorite is. Leave it in the comments if you’d like. Then get ready to write about it.

Mardi Gras or Carnival … a time for parties and revelry before the days of Lent. It isn’t really a time I have celebrated much, though I have seen some small celebrations.
What about you? Is Mardi Gras a time that you celebrate? What do you like best about it? Is it a part of your culture? Or just a time you enjoy?
