It is said that everyone has at least a book in them. Whether they get to write it, though, is another story, but as November is National Novel Writing Month, enthusiasm is hotting up for this year's stretch. The discussion board of the group is fairly active, with topics ranging from 'What is Your Novel's Title?' and 'How hard is it really to make it to 50,000 words?' to advice on 'Authoring Software' and 'Creation Sheets'. If you are a first-timer to the effort, you might want to check threads such as 'First Timer Reality Check', 'Where is the most inappropriate/unusual place you've NaNoed?' and 'It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.... How does your NaNoWriMo start?' to see how past NaNoWriMers have fared. There are plenty of threads about connecting with writers in different areas and even one about a 'National Drunken Writing Night 2009'.
What's great about this group: If you are a creative writer, join in the fun and see if you can meet the challenge of producing a novel in one month.

About Me
- Carine
- I believe (secretly) that I am probably one of the weirdest people you are likely to run into. For years, I compulsively read SF and fantasy - mainly because I was looking for that species of aliens/faeries/elves or whatever who had somehow left me behind here on earth. Now I know different. We are all strangely beautiful beings full of our own magic and mysteries. I would not say, I have secrets... rather, I have become one... I play in this oddly flawed reality as I listen to the sands whispering through my hourglass. When they are all gone, I will wake up into the infinity that is my true home. Until then, I write, play guitar and create art.
