Hello! I have heard of the NaNoWriMo, but never had a chance to take part. Can anyone let me know when it takes place again and the basic rules? Thank you much.:)

It takes place in November, but there is Camp NaNo too during the summer.

The basic rules are write 50,000 words in one month. You can find a lot more details by visiting their website, which has a built in forum of its own with tons of resources. National Novel Writing Month

Here's a quick start for how to go about trying it: National Novel Writing Month I've done NaNoWriMo now for 5 years and have "won" every year (meaning I reached the 50,000 word goal). It's always fun, but it can be very exhausting! Good luck as you've got most of the year to prepare for November!

If you want to try it sooner - Camp Nano is here.

It starts in April this year and again in July/August??? is basically the same sort of thing.
