On this great day of all things creepy, many of us will be preparing to enjoy a haunted evening. As the Midnight hour approaches, many others will be preparing for something just as terrifying: NANOWRIMO.
Each year, starting on November first, tens of thousands of writers strive to achieve a frightening goal. They hope to pen a short novel (50,000 words) in only 30 days. Many horror writers can be found within this brave legion.
And so, as 12:01 approaches, I'd like to salute the fine men and women of NANOWRIMO. They do quite a lot to keep the future of literature bright--and the light of literacy is one thing that should never go dark.
Why not visit them, even if you don't have an author inside you trying to claw its way out. They appreciate the attention to their cause, and a donation is always welcome.
