NaNoWriMo 2009!

Saturday, October 17, 2009

Yep, that's right. November is "National Novel Writing Month."

Earlier today, I was reading a blog that I follow called "Mothers in Medicine" and there's a post on there about NaNoWriMo. I decided to check it out, and I was so elated and happy and excited and I still am!!!

Last year, I told myself I wanted to write a novel. I wrote about 2 paragraphs but after that, I sort of just stopped writing it. I became too busy and I'm still busy. But I figured that I can set aside a little bit of time here and there to write a novel this November!

Basically, you have to write a 50,000 word (or more) novel by the end of November. To sign up for the challenge, go to http://www.nanowrimo.org/. I signed up today!!! Before November ends, you must submit your 50,000 word novel to the website. For successfully completing the challenge of writing a novel in one month, you get a cool badge that you can put on your blog or Facebook or whatever.

Lol. It sounds so fun!!! Why not write a novel for the heck of it? I know I've said many times that I don't like to write, but let me qualify that.... I don't like to write for my classes. =P Writing for fun is... fun!

Anyway, take the challenge and write a novel in a month this November! Yes yes, one month is a little short for writing a novel, but that's why December is National Novel Finishing Month =P
