The (10th!!) #SealeyChallenge is just a few short weeks away! To think, this challenge started back in 2017 when Nicole Sealey set a personal goal to read a book of poetry every day in August, and invited us all along đŸ«¶đŸŸ

Resharing as we enter the final week of the #SealeyChallenge: If you can’t read a book of poetry everyday, that’s okay! Accommodate yourself—read a poem a day, or read for 20 minutes a day, or participate every other day—and remember all time spent with poetry is worthwhile <3
