(Inter)National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) is upon us, and while Bookstacks is not a writers’ community, we do support the writers within Second Life.
Write-ins
Bookstacks will be hosting write-ins throughout the month. Each session is an hour, but you are welcome to stay longer.
To inject a little fun, we assign themes to the write-ins as an excuse to dress up; participation is completely optional. Also, you are welcome to find a comfy place anywhere on Bookstacks Isle to write at any time.

|---|---|---|---|
| Wed | Nov. 4 | 5 pm | Halloween Redux – wear your Halloween costume again |
| Thurs. | Nov. 5 | 5 pm | Oldest wearable item in your inventory |
| Thurs. | Nov. 12 | 5 pm | Hats and spurs |
| Fri. | Nov. 13 | 5 pm | The space age |

Daily Suggestions
We will also be posting a daily suggestion to incorporate into your writing if you wish. It will give you something to write about when your juices dry. The prompt will be posted in both the Bookstacks group and the NaNoWriMo SL group.
Prize
Bookstacks will give away a month’s stay on the Second Life cruise ship SS Galaxy to one SL NaNoWriMo participant. To win, you need to complete 50,000 words by Nov. 30 as verified by http://www.nanowrimo.org/ and register for the draw at the Bookstacks Pub.
