National Novel Writing Month is a program that just gets folks to WRITE! Starting November 1st, you start writing on a daily basis to complete 50,000 words! There have been several books created this way. Just think, "Yeah I was stuck inside because of a pandemic, but I wrote a killer book that might be published! It doesn't cost anything except for time. If you want help, ask Msr. Hunter or Mrs. Rayburn. We can meet with you over the phone, email, or Google Meet.
