Are you wishing you could write a play instead of a novel ?
Are you wishing you could write a novel *and* a play ?
Come join NaPlWriMo!!!
I started it last year as an alternative to Nanowrimo. It began as a joke but so many people took it seriously that I had to follow through !!!
We had about 20 playwrights last year ( ranging from professional published playwrights to high school students) and it looks like we will have at least twice that amount this year.
Naplwrimo's mission is to nurture playwrights of all levels while fostering community and the creation of new theatrical works on a global level.
We run in November at the same time as NaNoWriMo and our speciality is plays. A lot of our rules are the same , though we are a much smaller operation and we are ran a bit differently.
Note : no screenplays. Plays only. You'll have to wait for June so you can do Script Frenzy !!!

ps= keep in mind... we are not trying to "compete" with Nanowrimo. They are the ones who inspired us. We like them and as far as we know, they like us.
So please don't come over to Naplwrimo to complain about Nanowrimo or put down novelists ! Thanks !!!
