Self-Organizing Man

I just learned about and signed up for something that sounds really fun, and yet somewhat ominous.  NaNoWriMo.  National Novel Writing Month.  The basics are that between midnight the morning of Nov. 1st and midnight the night of Nov. 30th, you attempt to write a 50,000 word novel.  That’s roughly 1,700 words a day.  If you succeed, you get a certificate and a first draft of your own novel.  If you don’t make the 50,000, you are that much closer to finishing your first novel anyway!

You can sign up and learn more at www.nanowrimo.com.  This will be an adventure for me.  I hope some of you writers out there will join us crazy ones at a one month attempt at major writing discipline!  Keep us posted!
