Notice: Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called incorrectly. Translation loading for the live-composer-page-builder domain was triggered too early. This is usually an indicator for some code in the plugin or theme running too early. Translations should be loaded at the init action or later. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.

National Novel Writing Month is a yearly tradition urging writers to complete 50,000 words during the 30 days of November.

I encourage writers to participate for several reasons:

  • You learn that you actually can complete a novel
  • You learn that you can write quickly and get a lot done in one day
  • You learn that you can write to a deadline
  • You learn that you can write without stopping to edit
  • You get a good head-start on that first draft

Especially if you’re a beginning writer, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages. Even experienced writers can use the challenge to crank out most of the first draft to a new novel.

If you’ve never tried NaNoWriMo, I urge you to hop over to their website and sign up! Every word you write is that much more toward that novel you’ve been meaning to finish.
