National Novel Writing Month at GC Library

NaNoWriMo, or National Novel Writing Month, is coming to Garland County Library in November and challenges participants, called Wrimos, to write a 50,000-word novel in the thirty days of November. To learn more, go to www.NaNoWriMo.org and sign up. Participation is free. For the first time, the Garland County Library will host a Come Write In Program, in which Wrimos are actively encouraged to come to the library to write together. The official NaNo area will be the tables directly across from the door in the north-east corner of the library. Wrimos may come any time the library is open and use this area.

The mission statement of NaNoWriMo is: National Novel Writing Month is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that believes your story matters. We provide the structure, community, and encouragement to help people find their voices, achieve creative goals, and build new worlds—on and off the page.
