Celebrating freelance writing
One of my literary sources shows that February 11 through 16 is Freelance Writers Appreciation Week. Another source says that it was last week. And the web site for odd holidays doesn’t even list it, for heaven’s sake! To reconcile this problem regarding what I—as a freelance writer—consider to be an important tribute to a group of talented, literate, dedicated and brilliant people, I declare the ENTIRE month of February to be Hug a Freelance Writer Month! According to the web site Holiday Insights, anyone can create a special “day.” I’ve taken artistic license and included “week” and “month” in the umbrella term of “day.” Instructions for doing this are here: http://holidayinsights.com/moreholidays/createaday.htm If you are serious, you can copyright the day. Or if you are really serious, you can contact your congressperson and start the process for having it declared a national holiday, which takes an act of Congress.
I’m not all that serious.
