    National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo, presents a daunting challenge each November. Can you write 50,000 words in a single month and "win" NaNoWriMo? Yes, you can!

We'll discuss what to do with your finished novel, the benefits and pitfalls of undertaking this challenge, break through any obstacles together, and do some writing sprints to get our word counts up.
