It's the first day of NaNoWriMo!
Have you heard of National Novel Writing Month? It's exactly what it sounds like, you write a novel. In a month. I know, it's crazy, but totally achievable! Know how I know? I did it last year (while working full time, training for a 1/2 marathon AND going on a vacation). And so did Keith.
Have you ever wanted to write a book but were afraid it would suck? Or you've been meaning to write down that great story but you just never seem to have the time (even though you spent 3 hours scrolling through your tumblr dash last night)? NaNoWriMo is the answer to your dilemma! Let me let John Green explain it, he does a waaaaay better job than I could. Plus there's puff!
So, like he says, NaNoWriMo gives you the freedom to suck. The first draft of a book is supposed to suck. So if that's what's holding you back, stop it! Go sign up at http://nanowrimo.org/ (it's free) and start your book along with a HUGE online community to inspire and motivate you for these 30 days!
And if you don't want to write alone, join me and other writers at the Write-Ins I'm hosting at the library this year!
