I’ve got a confession: I’m probably the only writer who has absolutely no ambition to write a novel. That being said, I’m dusting off a notebook this November and putting pen to paper. Not necessarily to write a whole book, mind you, but in the spirit NaNoWriMo—that’s National Novel Writing Month to you—I’ve decided it’s time to get the creative juices flowing.

 

Whether you want to be the youngest published novelist ever or simply are aching to tell the world a story, short or long, GL is daring YOU to partake in NaNoWriMo this month. You can write a pile of words…or just one. We don’t care! We just want you to start thinking creatively.

 

Log on to to ywp.nanowrimo.org and check out the Young Writer’s Program. They’ve got tons of prompts and writing challenges to get ya started, expert pep talkers if ya get stuck and safe, moderated forums that’ll allow you to chat with other young writers and mentors.

 

Are you gonna write this month? Talk it out!

 
 

Heart this post? You’ll love these, too!

My teachers have never let us or told us about this. I think I'm going to give it a try. I have already starteed to write two different books. It is weriod because one day I have ideas for the first book and the next day I have ideas for the second book. Its weriod but kinda fun. I need some more stuff to talk about in my books. Can you help me get some ideas for it? Thanks. Tong

Honestly, GL? You don't even use proper spelling in an article for writing. What message (conscious or not) does that send?

I didn't know this exsisted but it helps. I'm working on a narrative for my literacy class and so far I have 30 pages in a size 11 font on word. My teacher has set the deadline for friday but is giving me an exception becuase of how well im doing. I hope I can get something done with my finished product...
