It's a rainy day here on the University of Kentucky's campus! Not sure about you guys, but rainy days always encourage us in the English Department to create a space that inspires creativity at home (or in Patterson Office Tower;)

Writers, readers, thinkers, humans: what inspires you to create?

Don't forget your umbrella today! 😊 ☔
