National Novel Writing Month Events



National Novel Writing Month is the largest writing project on the planet!  The idea is to write a 50,000-word novel in the month of November. It's all about quantity, not quality! The Oshkosh Area Writers club is hosting these events to help you along; all ages are welcome to participate. Bring writing supplies/devices; free Wi-Fi available.

What is NaNoWriMo? 
Thursday, Oct. 26 at 6 p.m.
Oshkosh Public Library, lower level conference room
We’ll help you register for NaNoWriMo, and give you tips and tricks to write a 50,000-word novel in 30 days. Think you can’t do it? Yes you can!

Kick-off Party
Wednesday, Nov. 1 at 6 p.m.
Oshkosh Public Library, first floor reading room

You’ve committed to writing a novel this month – get off to a great start. Come with paper or laptop and be ready to write! Refreshments will be served.

Thousand Word Thursday
Thursday, Nov. 9 at 6 p.m.
Oshkosh Public Library, first floor reading room

Tonight’s goal is to write 1,000 words. Maybe you’ll only write 200. The point is, you don’t have to write alone.  Join us for light snacks and heavy whining – then it’s time to start writing!

Night of Writing Dangerously
Saturday, Nov. 18 from 6 to 11 p.m.
Oshkosh Public Library

At a loss for words? Let us help you with plot ninjas, word sprints and other support.  Hang on tight – it’s a race to the finish during this wild night of writing!  Refreshments will be served.

Note: Library will be closed to the general public.  Use entrance adjacent to the parking lot.

Thank Goodness It’s Over Party
Wednesday, Nov. 30 at 6 p.m.
Oshkosh Public Library, first floor reading room

Join your fellow authors in a celebration of your effort, win or lose. Prizes and refreshments.

Events are sponsored by the Oshkosh Public Library and the Oshkosh Area Writers Club.
