NOVEMBER IS NEARLY HERE AND THAT MEANS IT'S NANOWRIMO TIME!
"National Novel Writing Month happens every November! It's a fun, seat-of-your-pants writing event where the challenge is to complete an entire novel in just 30 days. For one month, you get to lock away your inner editor, let your imagination take over, and just create! That means participants begin writing November 1 and must finish by midnight, November 30. The word-count goal for our adult program is 50,000 words, but the Young Writers Program (YWP) allows 17-and-under participants to set reasonable, yet challenging, individual word-count goals."
This is an all ages workshop for people who love to write. (And by "love to write", I mean....The type who won't eat breakfast until after they re-write the ending of the Star Wars fan fiction they stayed up till 2 am working on. Or, the kind that would rather write a short story about the Zombie Apocalypse then play Angry Birds while waiting at the DMV.) And, for those who have never written really anything before, but have this great idea for a story that they just can't stop thinking about. This class is meant to provide novelists of all ages and sill levels the support and accountability they need to meet their individual word count goal. |
If you or someone you know is a reluctant writer, please check out one of my drop-in workshops or consider trying a private class.
