Books are back, my friend. And now thanks to the likes of Harry Potter, Oprah's Book Club and that 11-year-old who got his dragon book published, it seems everyone is giving writing the old college try (re: procrastinating by heading out to happy hour where all you do is talk about the book you plan to "write" as soon as you finish that last beer...not that I know from personal experience or anything).
OK, I'm lying. I do know from personal experience. I am one of those lame, cliche people who has convinced herself that she will, in fact, write a book one day (just after this last beer, I swear).
Luckily I am not the only one. In fact, there are so many people out there like me that a group of California would-be writers made November National Novel Writing Month in 1999. Based off the theory that since really good books take years of painstaking work to put together, why not challenge all would-be writers to complete a novel in a month? Sure, it's going to...
