Have you ever dreamed about writing a novel? Here’s your chance! Join the National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) challenge and see if you can write a 50, 000 word story in 30 days.
NaNoWriMo is an annual, Internet-based creative writing project that brings together professional and amateur writers from all over the world.
Here’s how it works:
• Visit www.nanowrimo.org to create a profile
• On November 1, start writing!
Be sure to visit the NaNoWriMo website often to check in, track your progress, get pep talks and support, and to network with fellow writers. Don’t fret too much about the quality of your work- you can do that later. The main goal of NaNoWriMo is to encourage creativity worldwide and to have participants focus on completion, rather than perfection, of their work.
