Words Matter Week Begins Today!

March 2, 2025 Post a comment

Words Matter Week, which is in its 17th year, is a holiday that is celebrated annually the first full week in March, and the National Association of Independent Writers and Editors delights in honoring its essence.

Words are the basis for communication, no matter the language spoken. Babies make sounds, which eventually are formed into words.

Here at NAIWE, we know the importance of words. We want to celebrate it with you all week long, and we believe in the importance of words all year long!

 

Spread the Word

Join us in promoting Words Matter Week! You have NAIWE’s permission to reproduce the poster on your website, with a link back to this page, and you may also print and display it. Please invite your friends to participate in this year’s event and show your support for Words Matter Week by placing the poster in your newsletter, on your blog, or in your social media. Words really do matter, so let’s spread the reminders!
