The Biggest Writing Competition is About to Begin

National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) is an annual event starting on November 1st, challenging writers to create a 50,000-word manuscript in thirty days. This free endeavor, bootstrapped by Chris Baty in 1999, aims to foster creativity through daily writing, without self-censorship. Participants, competing against themselves, are provided with an opportunity to defeat self-doubt and embrace impulsive writing. The program has already helped authors to write successful novels including ‘The Night Circus’ and ‘Water for Elephants’.
