A Little Inspiration

This is the upstairs "reading room" -- in more ways than one -- at the delightful Shsakespeare & Co. in Paris, near Notre Dame. I've had the privilege of giving poetry readings there four times before they changed the rules; now you can give readings there only if you have a book with copies available for sale the same day. . . . but you can sit up there and read quietly for hours. Some people even live there. In exchange for free shelter, they work for the store. It remains an ideal to shoot for: to get more published in order to be welcomed back for more readings.
Tomorrow, July 8th, has some good Moon aspects: it trines Venus and Mars; semi-sextiles Jupiter, Neptune and Pluto; and sextiles Uranus. A great day for progressing with a project you've already begun. As it's after the Full Moon (today) it's not recommended for beginning new projects or selling anything, but for progress and brain-storming, it's wonderful.
