Two weeks from today, Tuesday January 27th, is Lewis Carroll’s 177th birthday. Carroll, you’ll recall, wrote about a girl who fell down a rabbit hole and found herself in a place where all the rules had changed. In two weeks, on Lewis Carroll’s 177th birthday, you should do the same.

That’s right: the 5th Annual Rabbit Hole Day is coming.

When you wake up on the 27th, instead of writing about your usual work and school and politics and friends and news and stuff, experience life down the Rabbit Hole and write about the work, the school, the politics, the friends, the news, the stuff that you find there instead. Travel through time. Turn into an animal. Flee from assassins. Talk to your goldfish. Conquer Greenland. Sprout some extra limbs. Learn how to walk on water. Marry an insect.

Love this idea. I’m lucky enough to do any substantial blogging these days (either here or on Livejournal – although I do manage to spout 140 character blurbs about nothing on twitter all day long), but if I can swing it, I’m definitely going to take up this challenge. As should you. If you do, please post a link in the comments – I’d love to see what people do on a day of celebrating creativity.
