….And just like that, we’re a few days into National Novel Writing Month!
If you haven’t started yet, don’t worry, you have plenty of time before November 30 to write 50,000 words of a novel. If you need help getting started, click here.
Spending too much time on social media during this pandemic-fueled election-cycle Age of Doomscrolling? Freedom.to is the sponsor of the “NaNoWriMo Gathering” at The Writingest State Online Conference on Thursday, November 12, at 7:30 pm.
Freedom.to can:
- Block websites and apps or the entire internet if you want to. With your distractions blocked, you can get into your workflow and stay on task.
- Helps break the habit of checking whatever digital source is beckoning. The more you experience Freedom time, the more you’ll find it indispensable.
- Treat your email like a mailbox (the mail comes and goes once a day) and enjoy your social media proactively on your time (not in respond mode.)

At the “NaNoWriMo Gathering,” the Network will offer a little virtual space within the Writingest State Online Conference for those taking part in—or curious about—NaNoWriMo to check in with each other, discuss your novels-in-progress, and share advice an encouragement. Novel writing is not required, only a serious interest in the craft and discipline of fiction.
