Well it’s almost November already folks! The years are going by quicker, the older I get. I don’t know where 2026 went! One of the things to look forward to after Halloween, and before Christmas, used to be NaNoWriNo (National Novel Writing Month). I used to participate in it a long time ago, so I was sad to see it shut down in 2025 after over two decades of being a home for creativity.
NaNoWriMo closed down for a host of reasons, but I’m sure many people will miss it. I never completed a novel but, like many, I did get a burst of creative energy and feel inspired to write something. I’m not in a place mentally right now to promise myself I’ll complete a novel in November, but I will promise to write something. Maybe, I can contribute to my work in progress. Maybe something fresh. But I will write in November in honour of the spirit of NaNoWriMo.
