How would you like to be able to sport this badge on your
blog, website or in every email you send out in November? If you participate in
National Novel Writers Month this November, you can!
Yes, that’s a lot of words, but you can do it! Join online
at http://www.NaNoWriMo.org and then join other writers at the West Haven
Public Library’s Main Branch on November 3rd from 9am to 3pm to get started on
your own ‘great American novel.’ If you have commitment issues and don’t want
to join the online group, no problem! Grab your laptop, notebook or a bunch of
napkins on which to write and come to the library on November 3rd. We will
welcome you with open arms and lunch in exchange for your donation of $25. All
proceeds support the West Haven Council on the Arts’ support of the arts in West Haven.
A little more about NaNoWriMo:
National Novel
Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) is a nonprofit event that encourages kids and adults to
tackle the challenge of writing a novel in November. Launched in 1999,
NaNoWriMo inspires its estimated 300,000 participants with email pep talks, a
huge and supportive online community, and a host of web-based writing tools.
Additionally, volunteers called Municipal Liaisons (MLs) in nearly 600 regions
organize local writing events and get-togethers that transform novel-writing
into an achievable and fun community endeavor. Go to http://www.NaNoWriMo.org
for more information and to sign up.
Join the West Haven Council
on the Arts on November 3rd, 9-3pm at the Main Branch of the West Haven Public Library, 300 Elm St., West
Haven, CT, to get a
start on your 50,000 words during National Novel Writers Month.
