November is National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), a literary marathon that challenges aspiring writers to generate a 175-page (50,000-word) fiction manuscript in 30 days. Conceived in 1999 by a bunch of twentysomethings in San Francisco with “nothing better to do,” the event now attracts more than 120,000 participants from around the world and has spawned a full-fledged nonprofit organization, the Office of Letters and Light, to keep it running.
