Hello Freewriters!
Once again this year many brave souls are attempting to bang out an entire novel (at least 50,000 words!) in the month of November.
It's called National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo, and you can find out more about on their website here.
The FreeWriteHouse is here to support everyone that gives it a go with upvotes, comments, and a little SBI incentive to keep writing.
As of today, Monday November 4 these are the writers we know are participating:
| Steem Name | NaNo Name |
|---|---|
| @felt.buzz | FeltBuzzWrites |
| @deeanndmathews | deeanndmathews |
| @mariannewest | Liz M. Brown |
| @kaelci | kaelci |
| @wakeupkitty | wakeupkitty |
If you decide to join, please comment on this post and we'll add you to the list.
For those who aren't taking on the challenge this year, please swing by and offer your support to your fellow writers!
The Good Stuff
How to get rewards for participating in NaNoWriMo:
Once a week I'll post a NaNoWriMo update post on the FreeWriteHouse account. Normally it will be at the beginning of the writing week, but I'm getting a slow start this week. So this means today and on the 8, 15, 22. You'll recognize it by the snazzy thumbnail image I made. 😆
All you need to do is Post links to your updates in the comments of the weekly post for as long as you are still participating in the challenge.
Easy right? You're already doing so much, I don't want to burden you with more.
Every NaNoWriMo writer that posts at least one update during the week will get upvotes and be eligible for the SBI shares being given away each week. If you post more updates you might get more upvotes, it all depends on resources.
Here's how the SBI shares work:
I'll be giving away a minimum of 10 SBI shares each week. So right now we have five writers so each would get two shares for a total of ten. If we have more writers join I'll up the amount so that everyone gets at least one - BUT your post must show you are participating in the challenge. How you do that is up to you.
Any questions? Ask in the comments!
