#NationalAuthorsDay2020 This November 1, celebrate National Author’s Day by curling up with your favorite book, a hot beverage, and spending time drifting into ...another world. In order to appreciate the writers who help inspire us, it’s important to get a sense of the time, blood, sweat, and tears that go into getting words on the page. On National Author’s Day, take a moment to appreciate the author(s) that spent countless hours writing your favorite books. https://nationaltoday.com/national-authors-day/. See more
