~ Novel News ~

BLOG SESSION

November 22nd, 2017

Good Evening Novelists ~ The reason why we are gathered here this evening is to have a Blog Session in which everyone can learn more great information about writing your Novel online this month.

If you are joining us for the first time, you may be here because you have already started writing your Novel this month, and you'd like to be among other Writers who are participating in National Novel Writing Month this year. We all have signed up to participate in NaNoWriMo (which stands for National Novel Writing Month), online at nanowrimo.org (click the link to sail over there).

If you have not yet signed up, please do, even if you do not think you can write your 50,000 words by the end of the month -- November 30th, 2017 -- give it a shot anyway. Keep in mind there are also Summer Camps online wherein you can write your Novel or any other writing project that has been on your mind, including Poetry Books, Documentaries, Historical Materials, Memoirs, Diaries, Biographies, you name it, you can write it during Summer Camp.

And, let us not forget that National Novel Writing Month happens every year. If you get started this year, and do not complete your Novel, you can always keep working on it at your leisure, and work on it some more during NaNo Summer Camp.

November 2017

Novels in Progress!

Surely, you'll be all geared up by the time National Novel Writing Month rolls around again in 2018, and you will already have your Profile set up online on NaNoWriMo.org so that you will be ready to rock & roll with the clicking of the keys come November 1st, 2018.

Don't forget to connect with others once you are adding your Novel Chapters onto NaNoWriMo for your word count. If you have any questions, you may ask your questions online on the Site or here on the Blog, and I will assist you as best I can. I've participated in NaNoWriMo for years, and also during NaNo Summer Camps. Loads of fun!
