Every year starting on November 1st, thousands of people around the world join in to write together for National Novel Writing Month. This year, please join Concord Library for a special NANOWRIMO Celebration! During the month of November we will meet in person and virtually for a variety of writing workshops to help you hone in on your novel writing skills. We'll have our special guest host Rayshell Clapper, Creative Writing & English Professor heading out our writing workshops! You'll be sure to learn some tips and techniques on writing and maybe even get to the NANOWRIMO goal of writing 50,000 words in thirty days!
