SocNoC (Southern Cross Novel Challenge) is New Zealand’s version of NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month). NaNoWriMo takes place in November which would be a really tough time for me to participate with the semester wrapping up so I came across a group called Kiwi Writers and joined up with them to do my thing in June. Its helpful to check in with their website everyday and post my new word count.
The idea is not to edit as I go, which is excruciating at times, and just get the raw material out. Its tough trying to keep up, but I think I will really learn a lot through the process.
