What is National Day on Writing? Held on October 20th each year, the National Day on Writing is an annual celebration of the important role that writing plays in our lives. According to the National Council of Teachers of English, NDOW "draws attention to the remarkable variety of writing Americans engage in" and "helps make writers from all walks of life aware of their craft."
