Do you know what NaNoWriMo is?
nanowrimo.org
National Novel Writing Month began in 1999 as a daunting but straightforward challenge: to write 50,000 words of a novel in thirty days. Now, each year on November 1, hundreds of thousands of people around the world begin to write, determined to end the month with a first draft. They enter the month as elementary school teachers, mechanics, or stay-at-home parents. They leave novelists.
I'm thinking of taking part this year. I have a couple of short story ideas in my head, either at the idea stage or the outline stage. Perhaps I could break through with one of these ideas, and actually write something. This challenge looks like a good opportunity to try it out.
Let us know if you'd be interested in taking part. Their site is full of resources and guides, it's pretty cool.
