In addition to the panelists at the Writing Show last night, there was a representative for NaNoWriMo — National Novel Writing Month. I had first heard of this event last year but didn’t participate. It’s held every November, challenging all (non-)writers to write 50,000 words beginning midnight Nov. 1 through 11:59 Nov. 30.
Learn more at the NaNoWriMo website. There appears to be a lot useful stuff there, including pep talks and community support. I intend to sign up and give it a shot. It may be the kick in the tuchas I need.
Will you participate this year? Have you in the past? What was your experience?
That’s me talking to Jean! Wow. Didn’t know you blogged about the Writing Show or I would have included it in GYWO with the other links.
If you do in the future can you send me a note?
Yes, I had begun putting my Writing Show notes, such as they are, on the blog. Hopefully others will find them worthwhile and encourage attendence.
