Celebrating a Duchess (The Duchess Who Wasn't Day)

Today's offbeat holiday is the "The Duchess" Who Wasn't Day.

It celebrates novelist Margaret Wolfe Hungerford who used the pseudonym "The Duchess" whenever she'd author a book.

She is most well known for the line "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder..." which comes from her book, Molly Bawn.

Celebrate today by creating your own pseudonym. Use it to sign things and see if anyone notices!

Or you can get some nice promotional pens and bring out the inner novelist in you.

Either way is cool.
