It’s too bad that you didn’t post this in October, because I believe you had to register before the beginning of November! This sounds really cool and could be a great opportunity for folks next year! There are quite a few Hoosiers participating, according to the website.

Actually, you can still register for it. It just cuts down on your time for writing a novel by the end of November.

Hi there -
I think everyone should NaNo at least once…it should be on that list of things you want to do.
It’s been great for me. My second NaNo novel, For Kicks, is coming out this March
