It’s November: Happy National Novel Writing Month!

NaNoWriMo urges writers at every stage in the grand game to complete the first draft of a 50,000 word novel. In a month. Think it can’t be done?

Erin Morgenstern’s recently published The Night Circus began as a NaNoWriMo project; look where it is now. On the New York Times Best Sellers List. See? It can be done. And with great success.

Are you game? Check out The Office of Letters and Light’s blog for inspiration, a morale boost, and other good-natured writing tomfoolery.
