51ÁÔÆæ

 

To draw attention to the remarkable variety of writing Americans engage in and to help make writers from all walks of life aware of their craft, the 51ÁÔÆæ Council of Teachers of English established October 20 as the 51ÁÔÆæ Day on Writing.

It’s important for everyone to share their knowledge about writing, organize participating groups in our schools and communities, and transform the public’s understanding of writing and the role it plays in society today.

Celebrate with us!

In partnership with the 51ÁÔÆæ Coalition Against Censorship and its Student Advocates for Speech program, we are publishing daily #WhyIWrite insights from students across the country.

#WhyIWrite on Social Media

What compels you to write? Tell us using the hashtag #WhyIWrite on 51ÁÔÆæ’s social media platforms the week of October 20. We’ll reshare some of our favorites!
