National Novel Writing Month (also known as NaNoWriMo /ˌnænoʊˈraɪmoʊ/) is an annual internet-based creative writing project which challenges participants to write 50,000 words of a new novel between November 1 and November 30. Despite the name it accepts entries from around the world. To win NaNoWriMo, participants must write an average of approximately 1,667 words per day. Organizers of the event say that the aim is simply to get people to start writing, using the deadline as an incentive to get the story going and to put words to paper. -Wikipedia
Basically, when November comes around, I have the whole month to write 50,000 words of a new novel. Now i'm still learning about this but from what I hear it seems really cool and a really fun challenge just like the A-Z April Challenge! Now this seems fun and I hope to participate but it all depends on how Divination is coming along. I hope to finish Divination within the coming months and HOPEFULLY get it published by August of 2012. If all pans out, this would end very well XD

I've done NaNoWriMo every year for almost ten years now. It's a lot of fun!
ReplyDeleteGosh! That's a lot of years ;P I can't wait xD
DeleteI missed NaNo this year, but it is a hellagood time and an amazing experience.
ReplyDeleteI bet :D I can't wait for this years info to come out :)
DeleteGood luck with NaNoWriMo! I tried it during 2010 but didn't manage it. I hope to have another shot at it this year and actually get to the 50,000.
ReplyDeleteYea I know what you mean. 50,000 words is a lot but its the summer :P I don't think i'd hit 50,000 but i'd definitely give it a try and possibly extend it into a different book XD I first want to finish Divination though :P
DeleteOne of these years I'll participate in this, but it sure is a tough month for me. Lots going on. Best of luck to your goals!
ReplyDeleteI gave you a Shout-Out on my blog today. :)
