"Write now is good.": My new favorite holiday is...

Hello and welcome!

My name is Kristin Gorski. I’m a freelance writer and editor. “Write now is good.” is my personal blog about writing, creativity and inspiration (with healthy doses of technology in relevant places). If you'd like to collaborate on a project, have writing/creativity info to share, or want to say, "Hi," contact me at kgwritenow (at) yahoo dot com.

My new favorite holiday is...

National Punctuation Day! It just occurred a few days ago (September 24th) and celebrates:

"...the lowly comma, correctly used quotes and other proper uses of periods, semicolons and the ever-mysterious ellipse."

For the kids, there's Punctuation Playtime, an educational workshop that visits elementary schools around the world. The holiday even has an "official meatloaf" in the shape of a question mark (photo and recipe PDF available on the NPD site).

I'm writing this in my calendar for next year. Here's wishing you and yours a happy, belated National Punctuation Day!
