In National Novel Writing Month, or ā€˜NaNoWriMo’ for short, writers try to write a novel in just one month.

The target is 50,000 words between 1st–30th November.

1666 words per day, on average…

Over a third of a million people take part worldwide — usually new authors, but not always.

About 10–20% reach the target.

It’s fun, and free! The accountability helped me draft book 3 of Sparta Online last year (you can find my profile here).

If you join, good luck!! 🌟
