Description
2009 edition also available
Over 1,300 forthcoming historic anniversaries occuring during 2008. Covers the entire year, January to December. For writers, journalists, film-makers, editors, producers, researchers, teachers and students.
If you're familiar with the monthly date-a-base lists on the ideas4writers website and in our newsletter then you'll know exactly what to expect. This book not only covers the entire year 2008, it also expands on our standard lists, with over 100 entries per month instead of the usual 40 - 50.
If you've never seen the date-a-base before, have a look at the sample chapter (see below) and you'll soon see what it's all about - and how useful it will be to you.
The Date-A-Base Book is specially formatted for ease of use. You can turn to any month and instantly see which significant anniversaries occur during that month. You can quickly mark the ones you want to write about, and get straight on with your writing. Every entry has been cross-checked with Encyclopaedia Britannica and other official sources for complete accuracy.
The Date-A-Base Book is a fantastic source of writing ideas. We've collected events and anniversaries from many different sources, and you'll find entries in the book that aren't generally available elsewhere, but are still significant and worth writing about. That gives you a big advantage over other writers who don't know about them.
The entries in the Date-A-Base Book are listed months in advance, giving you plenty of time to research and write about them, and get your finished work onto editors' desks well before the publication deadline - and ahead of everyone else! Once again, that gives you a huge advantage over other writers.
The Date-A-Base Book is suitable for writing in any format: magazine and newspaper articles, radio and TV features, short stories, poems, novels, screenplays, and so on. You can also use it for event planning, advertising features, and much more. And you don't have to use each item only once; you could turn each one into many different pieces of writing, or adapt a single article for several different markets. Just one single article sale will pay for your copy of The Date-A-Base Book many times over.
