I might just write a novel.... and in 30 days!!!

I read a post about the National Novel Writing Month aka NaNoWriMo earlier and I can't stop saying "Na Nu Na Nu" it's a more "Na No Na No" but that sounds a bit too much like the apple mp3 player.
I have never heard of this before but I am soo glad I stumbled upon it, I might even try it! Hmmm do I have time for this, do I even have a story? Probrably not but I will give it some thought.
It begins in November, and you have 30 days and nights to produce a 50,000-word/175 page novel. No one reads it, it isn't graded, it doesn't cost you anything and it will not make you famous but you will have a novel at the end of it!
Mine will probrably be a load of rubbish, with poor grammar, a load of cliches and a ropey storyline but what an achievement whether you succeed or fail - because .... at least you tried (yup that old chestnut)

So I encourage you! Sign up, join in and write, write and write some more!

Hmm maybe this is where the "November In Manchester" project I blogged about earlier got the idea from and what a great way to get together a plot- Food for thought that is.
