Nanowrimo, short for National Novel Writing Month, is an annual event that takes place every November. It has gained popularity among writers and aspiring authors around the world.
During Nanowrimo, participants are challenged to write a 50,000-word novel within the span of a single month.
The idea behind Nanowrimo is to encourage writers to overcome their fears and doubts and simply start writing. It emphasizes the importance of quantity over quality, with the understanding that first drafts are often far from perfect.
The goal is to get the words out on paper, to create a foundation that can be refined and polished later.
I’m not really participating this year, as the film I’m working on is demanding a bit more of my time. But, there should be plenty out there this month working on their 50,000 words.
