That means a lot for so many writers\u00a0in the world because some of us has some laziness issues in the remaining 11\u00a0months of the year.\u00a0 If you don\u2019t know,\u00a0NaNoWriMo is about writing a novel in one month. It means you have to sit down\u00a0and write 1667 words each day in November and the end you will have 50.000\u00a0words. And that\u2019s a lot!<\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">For my average word count a day is about 600 words,\u00a0sometimes a little bit less or a little bit more.

Some writer has a bad opinion about this because you\u00a0shouldn\u2019t force writing. But NaNo is not about forcing anyone into anything,\u00a0for me it is a big help to do away with the thinking and just concentrate on\u00a0writing. After that you must review everything anyway. But I like to feel this\u00a0team spirit lingering all over the world. We will get some inspiring messages\u00a0from famous writers to help us to get there.
