My friends at Overnight Prints recently challenged me to write this blog post. And like the stubborn competitor I am, I accepted.
But this topic wasn’t easy. Just do a simple Internet search on this topic and the only advice you’ll find is to review how you did over the holiday season. While that’s a crucial step, it’s only the first step to turning things around this month.
That’s how I knew there was a need for this blog post.
They say that it’s the most wonderful time of the year…but is it?
Sure, everything’s lit up for the season with holiday lights. And, of course, there’s holiday shopping and holiday parties and holiday meals and holiday jingles and holiday decorations and holiday ceremonies and holiday concerts and holiday charity events and holiday dances and holiday fundraisers and holiday games and holiday cheer.
This time of year, everything is about the holidays—and no one only you care about finding time to write around the holidays.
Happy holidays! Or is it holiday?
With season’s greetings being shared so often throughout this time of year, it can be hard to remember whether you should write and say holiday or holidays. You want to spread cheer through every card you send and to every person you pass on the street.
Yet a grammar snafu can really dampen your seasonal spirits.
Spread your holiday cheer over the holidays correctly with confidence by following these simple holiday grammar rules.

Enough of the winter wordplay! Here are five ways to commit more to your writing this season.
With Labor Day meaning an extra day off for us nine-to-fivers, a tempting thought came across my mind: I should skip blogging this week.
But my conscience soon kicked in. “Don’t let your readers down. They’re counting on a post from you come Tuesday.”
Then I had an epiphany. Do my readers (that’s you!) count on a blog post from me around the holidays?
So I came up with a balanced compromise: I’ll write a blog post about this.
‘Tis the season to loathe the season. That is, if you ♥️ writing and all the ⛄️🎄🎁 gets in the way of crafting your story.
With the holidays quickly approaching, every content marketer wants to get in on the Christmas conversation. But is the right time now—or have you missed the holiday content train?
