...is November, apparently.
"Have you ever thought about writing a novel?" This is the question my boyfriend posed to me last week. Well, indeed I have. But I suppose, who hasn't?
Here is a group that sponsors a novel writing contest every November. You have one month, exclusively, to write a 50,000 word/175 page novel. This is entirely for fun, and according to the website, "Art for art's sake does wonderful things to you," and "If you don't do it now, you probably never will."
6 pages per day is a tough, but probably doable regimen - especially for just one month. And, if we don't succeed, there's always next year. Anyone else considering it?
