  Classroom Activity: Novel Ideas
National Novel Writing Month (or NaNoWriMo), is a creative writing project originating in the U.S. in which each participant attempts to write a 50,000 word novel in 30 days. Despite the name, the project is now international in scope. Nearly 80,000 participants registered in 2006, with almost 13,000 winners verifying their novels as meeting the goal. The cumulative word total for all participants in 2006 was 982,564,701. Help students learn more about this form of writing using ProQuest Learning: Literature and BookCarts.
