<p><b>October 19, 2010</b>: In case you haven't heard of it, NaNoWriMo is coming up. That's <i>National Novel Writing Month</i>. It starts on November 1st. </p> <p>We encourage everyone to take a stab at it. Just give it a shot and write that story that's in the back of your mind. Don't worry about editing, proofreading, etc. Just pound out the ideas page after page and worry about editing it later. </p> <p> Here's a <a href="http://www.nanowrimo.org/" target="_nano">link</a> to the NaNo site which has all the details. There's a forum and support groups, even social groups. </p> <p> One Page Per Day is attempting to become a sponsor of this year's NaNo, but we haven't yet heard back from the organizers. In any case, One Page Per Day is free and highly useful to writers, so that's a form of sponsorship even if it's not officially recognized :) </p> <p> To help get yourself motivated, check out this odd but quirky and inspiring video about NaNo: <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/kZk-chthx0A?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/kZk-chthx0A?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object> </p>
