Welcome to the February 25, 2008 edition of writers from across the blogosphere. It’s a bit late and there are some repeats from the last carnival (due to an error with the carnival posting–I’ve kept them in so newer submissions weren’t accidently deleted), but it’s also full of new good reads as well.

If parents and kids can talk together, we won't have as much censorship because we won't have as much fear." — Judy Blume Happy birthday to author Judy Blume, who turns 70 today.

November is National Novel Writing Month. Janice structured this week's carnival, the NaNoWriMo Edition, like the sections of a book. The next carnival will be hosted at As For My House. Submissions are due by Monday at 6 p.m. I look forward to reading your submissions.

The National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) marathon has yielded 676,900,348 words in nine days as writers around the country struggle to compose a 50,000-word novel draft in a single month. If you need some inspiration, check out our NaNoWriMo toolkit or find a NaNoWriMo homebase. Twitter is crowded with NaNoWriMo scribes, and the tweets come pouring in every minute. Here are a few choice tweets from harried writers as they toil under a...

This month is National Novel Writing Month — Nanowrimo for short. A time for cranking (crunking?) out 50,000 words of elegant prose — or crap, depending. A time (30 days, to be precise) within a time (that lacks a foreseeable end, to be depressing) of widespread unemployment among writers, many of whom used to get paid to wordsmith. Damn, man. Those were the days. But just because the jobs have gone away doesn't mean that the passion has...

WINDSOR, Ont. (CUP) - It's almost November, which means aspiring writers everywhere will flock to coffee shops to knock out 50,000 words before the month's end. National Novel Writing Month, affectionately abbreviated to "NaNoWriMo", is upon us again. Writing 50,000 words in a month's time can be intimidating, but merely trying can get you on the right track.

"It is not healthy to spend so much time in the words away from civilization."         Which shows you where I got the title for this blog post, even though the original author meant to say “woods.” But don’t worry, it’s been permapersimmoned.       It’s week two and Day Twelve of National Novel Writing Month, 2009 and of my Nanonovel, The Tenor Who Came In From the Cold. I became a Nano rebel on  November first; I started writing the book I...

All over the world people have taken inspiration from the folks at National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) http://www.nanowrimo.org/ and are creating other types of month-long creative self-challenges (vlogging, etc.) so I'm going start my own and see how well I can join in by declaring National Write Something On My Blog Everyday Month (NaWriSOMyBloMo), this post being the first step on the journey. I've been working on a very cool project...
