Did you know that October 20 is officially National Day of Writing? This is the first year that it is recognized and that was official on October 8, 2009. As a writer, finding out this information definitely piqued my interest, so I have been scouring the web for the past two hours and this is what I came up with. There are a few wonderful ways that you can participate in National Day of Writing.

All day until 8 PM EST, you can join a chat room to listen to many speakers on writing. There are shared videos, tips for writing and so much more. Get information from some of the best writers. Everyone is welcome, teachers and students are encouraged to join. If you want to listen in on the live stream, please follow this link. From there you can join in on chat and listen to many speakers speak of writing.

Perhaps you are getting to this article a little too late? There are other ways that you can participate in National Day of Writing. To keep up with the latest happenings for this official day, you may want to follow National Day on Writing, on Twitter. You can become a Facebook fan. Writers are also encouraged to share their work on The National Gallery on Writing. There is also a group that you can join for discussions on Ning. Please visit that website here.

What a wonderful way for writers to interact with one another. There are writers from all walks of life.. These are not just freelance writers; there are teachers and others who are involved. As a writer, there is never too much to learn. We can learn from one another here, so get involved and let's learn from one another.
