Did you guys know that today is the National Day on Writing?
(Neither did we until a few minutes ago. Oops.)
Anyway, in recognition of the fact that writing is becoming an ever-increasingly important aspect of the lives of countless Americans, the United States Senate officially declared October 20th a day to commemorate writing.
The New York Times has a pretty cool roundup of some of the internet festivities over here if you want to check it out!
