Year five!
I am doing National Novel Writing Month for the fifth year this year. I have an idea for my novel and it's going to be a great time learning all about my characters. It's always an adventure learning where they are going to take me. I am going to pound out 50,000 words in the month of November. What FUN. I love doing this each year, and I think your kids would, too. There's a section on the website that's just for kids. Check it out for your high schooler!

My high schoolers are writing novels this year. We have been using the book WRITING FOR GOD'S GLORY and have done all the worksheets to prepare them. They aren't going to do NaNoWriMo this year but I plan on having them do it next year.
You should give it a try. It's exhilarating! I have no idea how I'm going to manage to pound out 50,000 words this month since I have so many other things on my plate, but it seems like I manage to use all my spare time doing so somehow!
Write on!!
