What if you could write the novel that you've always wanted to in the span of a month? If you've never heard of NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month), that's exactly what it promises to do in the month of November. I've known about the website for a couple of years now but I've never really put much thought into since I'm still learning how to write- I feel like I'm nowhere close to writing a novel.
But this year I decided to give it a shot. What's changed? I'm not looking at is as my opportunity to write the next great bestseller, rather as a month long word vomit to get out my ideas finally out of my mind and into the world.
To give myself a bigger challenge, I'm going to be also delving into a genre that I have never even attempted before but have always wanted to: fantasy. I grew up on Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings and the Eragon series and since then my love of other worlds has followed me into adulthood. So wish my luck and if you want to follow my progress my username is kellyduarte. And to anyone also participating best of luck!
