Novel Writing Coop Class

We had so much fun with National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) and the Secret Novel Writing Club last year that we're planning to do it again. This time we get to write with a bigger group.

I'll be using the How to Teach a Child to Write a Novel lessons from Little Blue School to teach middle school aged would be writers the elements of a novel and even to rough out chapters. If all goes well, we may even end the year with some rough drafts. These lessons are really nicely done, with a good mix of humor, literary lessons and practical wordsmithing. I can't wait to see what the group is like.

Maybe I'll even succeed in finishing NaNoWriMo myself this year.
