Inspired by @Lindsey Ciarrocca post today writing by the pool. I took a leaf out of her inspiration and sat outside to write. Grabbed a hard placemat as a writing desk and moved between being in the grass writing on the deck to just leaning on my kneee sitting in a chair. Words flowed freely. Excited to make an envelope and post tomorrow

The Victorian “language of stamps” — There were guides claiming the position and angle of a postage stamp could send a secret message. Upside down, sideways, tilted left or right could supposedly mean everything from “I love you” to “Forget me not.” Basically, flirting via stamp placement. I love all these letters of bygone days secret codes.
