Hey! I am new here and I have been reading through all of this Nano stuff... what the heck does it mean? I mean what is the point? It seems like something you do every year.. you write a novel and submit it.. but what is it????
NaNoWriMo = National Novel Writing Month.
It happens every November and starts at 12 a.m. on November 1. From that moment, you have 30 days (til midnight November 30/December1) to write 50,000 words towards of a novel.
Because of the time constraint, NaNoWriMo is more about quantity, not quality. The point is the existence of words, not what the words say.
Basically the purpose of NaNo (IMHO) is to give you a kick up the bum and get you started on that novel/story/whatever that's been bugging you for ages. It has been a great source of inspiration for me personally this year, even though this is my first official attempt
