Do you, like Charlotte Mason, take a daily dose of poetry?

This is my current selection. By the way, my eldest son recommended Ursula Le Guin to me. He absolutely loved her Steering The Craft: A Twenty-First-Century Guide to Sailing the Sea of Story, which he read in high school.

I haven’t read it myself so can’t give you a personal recommendation, but the book focuses on the craft of wordsmithing. One chapter title references my favorite poet, Emily Dickinson, called “Indirect Narration, or What Tells—Exercise: Telling it Slant” so I’m thinking that’s a good sign.
