109 - Writing For Minor Holidays

Minor holidays are a great opportunity for writers to show editors why they need to publish *this* story *now*. Forget about the over-subscribed holidays of Valentine's and Christmas. Instead, write about some oddball holidays.  All StoryADay's prompts in June will be tailored to these odd little holidays and anniversaries. Listen to this episode to find out why you might want to write an Arbor Day or National Handwriting Day story. Plus some opportunities to give and invest in your writing. NOTES: Get Well Gabby Foundation is collecting NEW books to be distributed to children's oncology wards. Send them to PO Box 555, Ocean View, DE 19970 or contact your local hospital to see if they need donations.
