NaNoWriMo – this is what it is all about.
National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) is a fun, seat-of-your-pants approach to creative writing. On November 1, participants begin working towards the goal of writing a 50,000-word novel by 11:59 PM on November 30.
Valuing enthusiasm, determination, and a deadline, NaNoWriMo is for anyone who has ever thought fleetingly about writing a novel.

I am procrastinating a little about this. I had in mind what I wanted to do for November, but in my personal research I have looked back at some material that I have written and am coming to the conclusion that I will not start a new piece – but work on one of the unfinished ones. While it is not strictly the idea of NaNoWriMo – I think it will be the best use of my time. Maybe I can finish both????
