I Love to Write Day

I Love to Write Day is celebrated on November 15 every year.

Writing is not just for acclaimed authors. After all, they had to start somewhere too, and even though it may seem hard to believe, every famous writer started the first chapter of their first book with just one word.

I Love to Write Day was started by an author called John Riddle, from Delaware. He wanted a day set aside so that everyone, no matter their age, could spend some time writing, according to National Today.

The aim is to get people to sit down and put something on paper or on a computer, however short and in whatever style, kick-starting their writing and giving them confidence through being part of a global movement.

John Riddle was a writer, he wrote over 34 books and tons of articles. He believes that writing is a very good way for people to express themselves creatively.

So, he decided to challenge people to set one day aside for writing. He believed that I Love to Write Day could launch the careers of the next bestselling author, as long as they sit down and write.

Writers across the world write on all sorts of topics, in many different forms. There are fictional and non-fictional books, novels, short stories, poems, plays, essays, articles, songs, and scripts.

They may write for themselves, for blogs, for newspapers, or be working with publishing houses. Some writers may also be illustrators or work with illustrators to add pictures to their books.

A lot of writers are self-taught, although many might choose to improve their skills by taking a short course, or even a full degree in the kind of writing they want to pursue. There are courses for journalists, bloggers, and creative writers of all kinds.

Writers are needed everywhere because a good writer is one who can convey ideas clearly.
