March has a lot of Crazy Obervances for Writers

Posted by Angela Render on March 1, 2010

Recent developments in my social networking efforts on behalf of my clients have sent me scrounging for timely topics on a wide variety of things. I found this marvelous resource when I was keeping Smithsonian Magazine’s Kids’ Castle (sadly now gone away) up to date. Brownielocks keeps a complete list of crazy holidays and observances that she somehow verifies as legit. While sorting through them for my various clients, I started a list for myself of all the writing-related days. Some are specifically for writers and some I just thought useful for writers. Here’s my personal list:
