There's so much expectation about what you might write about. Do you share a Valentine's themed photo shoot? Do you write a love letter to your husband (again!)? Do you publish one of the thousands of press releases you've been bombarded with from companies who want to sell your readers flowers and chocolates and extravagant gifts? Do you just skip it all together!?
