Share Why You Write on The National Day on Writing
“We all have our own reasons for why we write, and many are essential to accomplishing our daily plans, not to mention achieving our dreams.” – NCTE Why I Write
Join me and thousands of Americans as we celebrate The National Day on Writing on Thursday, October 20th. Founded by the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE), the day draws attention to the importance of writing in all of our lives.
From text messages and social media posts to journals and novels, all of us write something every day. And, helping the younger generations understand how crucial writing is to communicating their thoughts is what English teachers around the country work tirelessly to do.
