Moustaches be damned - here at n/n, November can only mean National Novel Writing Month.
"International" may be more appropriate, since 400,000 writers from 200 countries are expected to participate. Those signing up tackle the Herculean challenge of drafting a 50,000-word novel before midnight on November 30, for (pretty much) nothing but the sense of achievement. More details at nanowrimo.org.
By way of encouragement to all taking part, here's some sage advice from W. Somerset Maugham:
"There are three rules for writing a novel. Unfortunately, no one knows what they are."
If you'll permit us to interpret, we believe the British great means that when it comes to writing, there are no universal formulas - and no shortcuts. Novels are born of determination, elbow grease and sheer love of the written word. We like to think we bring these things to our writing projects, and to all those putting pen to paper, or finger to keyboard, whether for the first or the thousandth time -- we salute you.
