Camp NaNoWriMo

Coming to a close in a few days is the first Camp NaNoWriMo of 2014. Don’t fret, it comes back in July for another chance to make writers cry. But I suppose you’re not really fretting if you’re sitting there, reading this, going, “Sarah, what on earth is Camp NaNoWriMo?”

Camp NaNoWrMo, which I will just call Camp from now on, is sort of the laid back sibling of NaNoWriMo.

“Wait! What’s that!?!”

NaNoWriMo? It’s a challenge that takes place every November to write a novel (50,000 words) in just 30 days. Its open to anyone with a story to tell. Or even a collection of stories if you like. The rules are pretty loose and open to interpretation. Just sit down and write 50,000 words in 30 days. That’s about 1,667 words a day, which is a far less daunting way to break it down. There are a lot of different breakdowns and if you have the time and dedication to write 50K in one day you can totally do that. Actually if you do that, I will worship you. You will officially be entered in my Big Book of Deities.
