We are excited to announce our fall writing challenge! Join us as we travel AROUND THE NOVEL IN 90 DAYS!
The industry sweet spot for a full-length novel is around 90,000 words. Hence, we plan to write 90K in 90(ish) days!

June is an excellent time to pick up an abandoned project and find the end. Or start a new project between now and then and plan to finish it in June! A lot of us have piles of incomplete projects sitting around, so we wanted to have a month to focus on finishing things.

Announcement: First off, thank you for joining this community & keeping the writers’ spirit alive & well year round! Secondly, we'd like to be open & candid with you as we always have been. Come this NaNoWriMo 2024, all your current MLs for the NYC region will be stepping down.

Okay Nighttime Novelists, we've got another one for you!

6. Are you plotting this NaNoWriMo novel, pantsing it, plantsing it, or are you a rebel and it's not a novel at all?

#NYCNoWriMo those replies!

Please forgive your ML! Posting these Nighttime Novelist questions whilst juggling NaNo events, writing, and life has been a bit rough. Better late than never, though, right?

5. Is your MC a subway person, a bus person, a cab person, or do they walk everywhere?

And here's tonight's Nighttime Novelist question:

4. What's your favorite writerly fun fact about New York?

Oops! We've been having so much fun at our evening write-ins this weekend that we neglected to post last night's Nighttime Novelist question! Here it is:

3. What NYC breakfast spot would your character(s) patronize?

Remember to include #NYCNoWriMo in your replies!
November 5, 2023 at 3:03 AM
It's time for another #NYCNoWriMo Nighttime Novelist question!

2. Tell us one random and interesting thing about your MC (and for those of you new to this, that's "main character").
November 3, 2023 at 1:20 AM
This year, we're bringing back our Nighttime Novelist evening questions! Tonight's question lets us get to know you a little bit, Wrimos:

1. What borough(s) are you writing from?

Remember to put #NYCNoWriMo in your reply so we can see what you share!
November 1, 2023 at 11:03 PM
Happy November 1, Wrimos! Woohooooo! You can do this! Tap away at those keyboards, dictate into those phones, scribble onto those notepads-- there's no wrong way to get those words!
November 1, 2023 at 11:02 PM
Reminder that our Zoom Ask Us Anything is tonight at 7pm! The link to the event is on our Events page on the NaNo site, but if you wanted to ask us a question, drop it right here: forms.gle/nb9nfB9ibcTR...
