National Novel Writing Month

Dear All,


November is National Novel Wrinting Month. The challenge is to write an entire novel in 30 days, from Nov 1st to Nov 30th. There is no minimum or maximum size, what matters is to keep writing! You can learn more about the Novel Writing Month here:


http://nanowrimo.org


Who would be ready to take up the challenge with me?

I won't be joining you (mostly due to a lack of talent and ability) but it would be very nice if you could come along to the book club to share your experience and perhaps read us a little from your novel.

Any further details will be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Andy,


Tomorrow is the last day of the month. I wrote about 25'000 words (in French, representing about 50 pages A4), which is half of my target. I didn't meet my target, but all in all, it was a very interesting experience. I have now about half a novel, and will try to keep up with the rythm, so I might finish it before the end of the year. It was an intense experience to write on a daily basis, and I highly recommend it to everyone here who likes writing but sometimes feel they lack inspiration:  generally, you have to start writing to see the ideas coming and not the other way!

Yeah, I tend to find that NaNoWriMo is a great tool to get yourself into the habit of writing daily. Unfortunately, I'm not so great with the follow through after November... It's helpful how you can see your word count going up daily on the site.

Writing is like a therapy. For me its like sitting and letting the ideas flow out of your pen. A great month and idea to write an entire novel.
