Did you know there’s a holiday for everything? Today happens to be [Embrace Your Geekiness Day](https://nationaltoday.com/embrace-your-geekness-day/?ref=justincox.com), which I happen to love. We all have a bit of geek in us, [whether we’re willing to admit it or not](https://justincox.com/blog/2017/01/overcoming-social-anxiety-at-a-video-game-convention/).

I love the show **[Freaks and Geeks](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0193676/?ref=justincox.com)*. It only lasted for a partial season in 2000 but is a true work of art. The show stars a host of people who would become stars, like Seth Rogan, Linda Cardellini, Jason Segel, Busy Philipps, and James Franco. Oh, and did I mention it was created by Paul Feig and produced by Judd Apatow? It’s pure lightning in a bottle.

**Freaks and Geeks* depicts everyone’s awkward high school years where they are trying to fit in and find their tribe. Writers are no different. We’re all a little geeky and in need of a community.

Jessica and I built The Writing Cooperative to be your place of community. We are a place where you can geek out about a tv show that inspired creativity or your undying love for the Oxford comma. Whatever your geekiness is, we encourage you to embrace it. Not just today on this undoubtedly made-up holiday, but every day.
