Welcome to 2016’s NaNoWriMo thread!
For those not in the know, National Novel Writing Month is a month-long assault of writing, where participants are asked to attempt a rather mammoth task — write 50,000 words within the 30 days of November. Although the official rules state that this must be for a brand-new story that you start writing on the 1st November, rules are made to be broken and many people use the month to continue an already started story or to write multiple stories at the one time. In the end, as long as you reach the 50,000 word minimum, then you’re a winner. Hooray!
You can sign up for NaNoWriMo through their website. Once you’ve created an account (or signed in, for those of us who are NaNoWriMo regulars) then it’s as simple as creating your novel and waiting until November 1st arrives so you can begin writing! The NaNoWriMo website will give you regular pep talks, updates and also gives you a way of validating your word count so that when November 30th comes around, you can check if you’ve managed to hit the target.
Although there are forums on the NaNo website itself, we always have a thread here on Mibba where you can discuss, plan and panic alongside other Mibbians who are participating. You can use this thread to get help, to participate in any word sprints that other users may want to start up, and also to just chat with people when the writing gets too much. Don’t forget to leave a link to your NaNo profile and the story you’ll be writing so that other can check it out!
