NaNoWriMo Kickoff

And we’re off! This is it — the start of your novel or writing project. According to the non-profit organization NaNoWriMo: “One of the key pieces of writing advice you hear from NaNoWriMo veterans is to hit the ground running. The first few days are an important chance to get ahead on your daily word count and set the tone for the rest of the month.”

Whether you’ve done a ton of prep for NaNoWriMo or you’re getting started with a blank page today, join us to start locking in our word count lead together!

NaNoWriMo is National Novel Writing Month. Every year, hundreds of thousands of writers attempt a great adventure during November. These aspiring novelists race to put down 50,000 words in just 30 days.

NaNoWriMo has helped kick off the drafting of many published novels like "The Night Circus," "Wool," "Water for Elephants," "Cinder," and "The Wedding Date." Although originally intended for novel writers, the event has expanded to whatever writing project you want to commit to for November. The community of NaNoWriMo
writers find kindred spirits, share ideas, and join in word sprints at NaNoWriMo.org, online forums, and Discord communities.

BARN's Writers’ Studio is hosting regular (free) write-ins during the month of November where we can cheer each other on and keep the fires of inspiration burning.
