It’s Day 1 of National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), an annual Internet-based creative writing project that takes place during the month of
November. Participants attempt to write a 50,000-word manuscript between November 1 and November 30. It’s a great challenge that helps you finally write that book that’s been burning to get out of you.
I’ve done the challenge a couple of times; and admittedly, I fell considerably short of my goal last time I did it. But it’s a new year, certainly a different kind of year and if nothing else, I want to walk away from 2020 with a completed manuscript for a new book. It might need lots of editing (Hemingway famously said, “The first draft of anything is s***”) but I’ll be able to say I wrote a book during the pandemic.
Ah, goals.
So care to join me? There is no cost, just register at https://nanowrimo.org/ to keep track of your progress. You don’t even have to write 1,666 words a day, simply adjust the daily word count to fit the genre. What are you waiting for?
