On Thursday, October 8, the U.S. Senate passed a resolution declaring October 20 as the National Day on Writing! JRMS recognized the National Day on Writing by inviting students, teachers and parents to submit to Mrs. McKay a six-word autobiography. That’s right. We used six words—no more, no less—to tell the story of our lives.
Entries are published on Mrs. McKay’s website.
“I learned that you should feel when writing, not like Lord Byron on a mountain top, but like a child stringing beads in kindergarten--happy, absorbed, and quietly putting one bead on after another.” Brenda Ueland
