DESCRIPTION:
November. National Novel Writing Month. Nanowrimo. Nano. It's known by lots of names, but all mean the same thing. Getting together with all your writing friends to write an entire novel in a month! Or, at least, 50,000 words of one. Insane? Maybe! But it is totally doable. Come learn how to kickstart your writing and get to that 50k goal! We will go over strategies to over come the dreaded "blank page", keep those words coming, and get over that final hump to the finish line! Write, write write!
