NaNoWriMo 2017

It’s that time of year again! We’re already a week into NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) and I wanted to share my thoughts as I tackle 50,000 words for the second year running.

Would I recommend NaNoWriMo?

Yes! I mean, after last year I swore I’d never do it again, but you know what? I learnt so much. That’s why I’d recommend it and why I think every writer should try it at least once.
