Novel in a month is nuts, but it sounds good at parties
In short, in 29 days (or 27, if you include 2 “days off”), I wrote a novel. It was for the National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo.
It’s a competition of sorts; you aren’t competing with anyone else (unless you want to, I suppose); you are only challenging yourself. There is no prize, except that at the end of November, you can say you wrote a 50,000-word novel.

Anthony’s travels have also taken him around the sights and beers of Thailand, Japan, India, Canada, Ireland, the USA, Cambodia, China and Nepal. He and his wife live in Oregon and gave their son a passport for his first birthday.
