Novel in November

As I wrote in a previous post about things I'd like to do in my lifetime, I'd like to write a novel or two.

It turns out that there is an entire community that is focused on doing such a thing in a public setting. If you go to the National Novel Writing Month site you'll see that people write an entire novel in one month.

Blogger has gotten into this and has a similar program where you'll write your novel in stages in a blog format.

I'm really thinking about this. Doing 50,000 words in November will entail about 6-7 pages a day, but maybe that's the kick-start I need to get going.

I'll keep you updated on whether or not I do it.
