Yes, it is another holiday that is not especially well known.
This one is the National Day on Writing, which first took place in 2009 and then was celebrated again in 2010.
It was established by the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE), with the hopes of increasing recognition for the role of writing in our everyday lives.
Here is some more information on this day, according to the Wikipedia article on this topic:
