Why Write-A-Thon: Stay Out of Trouble

Is it any wonder I’m not a criminal? … I’ve got too much time on my hands. -Styx

Yeah, you know who you are. You’re not bored, exactly. It’s just that with too much time on your hands, you tend to get in trouble. Right? Maybe you cyber stalk your ex, shop too much, or overeat. Whatever your vice, you are the perfect candidate for a write-a-thon.

When you sign up for National Novel Writing Month and commit to writing 50,000 words in a month—your time gets limited real fast. You won’t have time to do anything but write, work, eat, and sleep. Just think about what a model citizen you will be by the end of the month! (Just think how happy the neighbors will be!)

Need more reasons to write-a-thon? Come to the book launch for my new book, Write-A-Thon: Write Your Book in 26 Days (And Live to Tell About It) at Boswell Book Company next Tuesday, October 18 at 7:00 PM. We will have cake and prizes!

And if you don’t live in the Milwaukee area, don’t worry—starting next week we’ll be doing an online launch for write-a-thon right here and at other blogs across the web. There will be loads of inspiration, some amazing tips to get you going, and a few prizes along the way.
