phiLOLZophy: Philosoph-Off: Bukowski vs. National Novel Writing Month

philolzophy:

November is National Novel Writing Month. Weirdly, the group doing the project doesn’t have a mission statement, an FAQ, or an About Us on their website (come on guys, its 2011) but basically ‘NaNoWriMo’ is a writing challenge encouraging the world at large to write 50,000 words this month….

i’m on team bukowski but also am doing NaNoWriMo. the thing is, it’s been relatively easy, because it DOES burn in me and force its way out of me. NaNoWriMo just gives me a place to put it.
