With NaNoWriMo no longer running, many writers are feeling the loss of that annual challenge to keep them motivated and accountable.

This November, ProWritingAid is launching Novel November—a month-long challenge designed to help writers turn blank pages into finished drafts. We’re delighted to be supporting it as a sponsor.

The goal: write 50,000 words in 30 days (about 1,667 words per day). It’s ambitious, but you’ll have an entire community writing alongside you.

Expect daily writing sprints, craft webinars, and community support, all designed to keep you motivated.

The line-up features some of today’s most inspiring voices in publishing, including:

● Madeline Miller (Circe)
● Onyi Nwabineli (Someday, Maybe)
● Rufi Thorpe (The Knockout Queen)

They’ll be joined by a host of bestselling authors, editors, and writing coaches offering expert advice throughout the month. Whether you’re chasing your first novel or your next one, Novel November is your chance to write with guidance, energy, and inspiration. And the best part? Participation is free—and your words will also support Room to Read, a global nonprofit bringing literacy and education to children in underserved communities.Take your story from blank page to first draft in just one month with the support of bestselling authors and the tools writers love.
