Review for National Novel Writing Month, Berkeley, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I found out about The Office of Letters and Light when I participated in my first National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) in 2007. Through that experience I not only rediscovered a long-dormant passion for writing, but also gained a wonderful circle of intelligent, caring friends who I remain very close to (one of whom I'm planning to marry next year). I would highly recommend NaNoWriMo for any fan of the written word, and I'm eternally grateful to The Office of Letters and Light for creating and continuing to further such an incredibly grueling (50,000 words in a month is no picnic) but incredibly rewarding experience.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

giving me the impetus and support for writing the cores of four potential novels, one of which I'm currently in the process of refining for publication.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

consider finding a new name for National Novel Writing month, because it's now very much a global phenomenon. Would "GloNoWriMo" be as catchy though?

Role:  Donor & I participated in four straight National Novel Writing months (and counting).
