NaNoWriMo, aka “National Novel Writing Month” is an online event held in November where people try to write a 50,000 novel by the end of the month. This year, over 190,000 people participated in this event.

One of our great friends and followers, Conor Reid (Blog |  Twitter), has made his own NaNoWriMo, called “Blood on the Golden Horn”. It consists of over 55,000 words. A note from the author:

Before you download, keep something in mind. This novel was written in only 30 days. It is not the greatest novel ever written. I realize that it is not that good. I realize that there are countless spelling and grammar errors throughout. I realize that there are massive gaping plot holes all over the story. And yes, I realize that there is pretty much zero characterization. But you know what? I don’t care. I wrote a novel, and it’s a novel I’m proud of! So I hope you enjoy it! And, if you have any suggestions on how to make it better (of which, I am expecting quite a lot), please feel free to email me. My email is solidreid@gmail.com. I hope you like my novel!
