November is National Novel Writing Month, also known as NaNoWriMo, which is a month long event that challenges writers to write 50,000 words of a novel throughout the month of November. Over the course of the ten years that the event has been around, several authors have gone on to publish bestselling novels that were started during NaNoWriMo!
