The 2007 National Novel Writing Month, a fun, seat-of-your-pants approach to novel writing, finished November 30. Participants began writing November 1. The goal was to write a 175-page (50,000-word) novel by midnight, November 30.
There is a non-profit organization on the Internet who sponsors this"marathon" writing contest for people who have always wanted to write a novel. I decided to give it a try and completed the task with my first novel.
By trying to write a novel you get to understand your own "story" and that is essential in decision-making.
According to the site here are the statistics about participation in the past:
Founded: 1999 in Oakland, CA
Annual participant/winner totals:
1999: 21 participants and six winners
2000: 140 participants and 29 winners
2001: 5000 participants and more than 700 winners
2002: 13,500 participants and around 2,100 winners
2003: 25,500 participants and about 3,500 winners
2004: 42,000 participants and just shy of 6,000 winners
2005: 59,000 participants and 9,769 winners
2006: 79,813 participants and 12,948 winners
