NanoWrimo 2008 - So you want to write a novel?

Well I did it. A friend of mine put me up to the challenge of writing a novel in the NanoWrimo 2008 writing competition, and I broke the 50,000 word challenge, all in the space of a month. It was a relatively short novel about a young boy and his adventure (about the length of the Great Gatsby), but I really enjoyed it. Do go check out the site, you can even donate for their Young Writers Program - it's a great way to get kids into writing. If you'd like to see a sample of my book, check out my profile page.
