National Novel Writing Month

What is NaNoWriMo?

National Novel Writing Month is a fun, seat-of-your-pants approach to novel writing. Participants begin writing November 1. The goal is to write a 175-page (50,000-word) novel by midnight, November 30. ... Make no mistake: You will be writing a lot of crap. And that's a good thing. By forcing yourself to write so intensely, you are giving yourself permission to make mistakes. To forgo the endless tweaking and editing and just create. To build without tearing down.

To answers, from questions.

Which is exactly what I've been keeping myself busy with in the first week of November. Hopefully my train doesn't run out of fuel - it shouldn't - and come my twentieth birthday, I ought to have a semblance of something I can call my personal own novel.

Can be tough with the amount of possible plagiarising. Still.
