Want to Write a Novel?
Have you ever thought about writing a novel?
If so, I definitely encourage you to check out NaNoWriMo.org!
NaNoWriMo is a non-profit organization that sponsors National Novel Writing Month, which involves attempting to write a 50,000 word novel in the month of November.
Every year hundreds of thousands of people around the world participate - some serious writers and many others who do it just for fun.
Quite a few well-known novels got their start during NaNoWriMo (their website has a list of some of the most famous).
I’ve participated several times and it was super fun! One year I even reached the goal of writing a 50,000 word novel draft, which was a challenging and rewarding process.
Even if you aren’t interested in attempting the 50,000 word novel goal, following along is still worthwhile.
The program has lots of fun stuff like inspirational pep talks by well-known authors and local writing meet-ups.
If you’re even curious I encourage you to check out the website and consider signing up.
I haven’t decided if I’m going to do the novel-writing challenge this year, but I’m definitely going to follow along because it is so fun and inspirational to be part of this world-wide event!
If you decide to participate, send an email to liz@happybrainlife.com and let me know!
