Hi everyone!

Every November is National Write A Novel In A Month (NaNoWriMo), month. The name speaks for itself. Writers nationwide challenge themselves to write a novel in a month. The requirements are to begin writing a 50,000 word novel on November 1st through November 30th at 11:59pm. There are no limitations to who can win.

For any of you who want to challenge yourselves as writers, totally join in on this special competition! Each and everyday you would have to write about 1,667 words per day for 30 days.

That amount of constant writing can wear you out and tire your creative side. There are programs out there that support and provide services to those entering this competition.

For instance, the Topeka and Shawnee County Public Library offers resources and write-ins for those who are participating in NaNoWriMo. Gathering together with fellow writers can help release the tension and even inspire you further. Here is a link to a post on their website with information about their services: http://tscpl.org/events/national-novel-writing-month-resources.
