Hands typing on a typewriter for National Novel Writing Month

National Novel Writing Month, commonly known as NaNoWriMo, is a creative writing challenge that takes place every November, inspiring writers from around the world to pen a 50,000-word novel in just 30 days. Founded in 1999, NaNoWriMo has grown into a global phenomenon, encouraging aspiring and seasoned writers alike to push their creative boundaries, embrace the writing process, and turn their novel ideas into reality.

Participants, known as “Wrimos,” sign up on the NaNoWriMo website, where they can track their progress, connect with fellow writers, and access resources to help them stay motivated. The goal isn’t necessarily to produce a polished novel by the end of the month, but rather to unleash creativity, develop writing discipline, and explore new storytelling possibilities.

NaNoWriMo is celebrated for its supportive and inclusive community, with local and virtual events, write-ins, and workshops designed to keep participants on track. Writers of all ages and backgrounds come together during November to challenge themselves, share their stories, and find joy in the creative journey. Many successful novels, including bestsellers, have emerged from NaNoWriMo, proving that this challenge can be the first step towards a finished manuscript.
