For many (maybe even most?) of us, November is noveling season. But there have always been folks for whom November is an inconvenient month to abandon real life. There are also many more folks who want the guilt monkeys and firm deadlines that NaNoWriMo provides more than once a year.
We’re always happy to provide additional guilt monkeys (we got a really great deal on a bulk order a few years back), which is why we launched Camp NaNoWriMo last year. Camp is a chance to enjoy the NaNoWriMo experience in a pared-down, simplified environment. All of the guilt monkeys, none of the November!
Camp NaNoWriMo gives you a place to find writing buddies and join a cabin, receive pep talks from Lindsey and other staff, commiserate with other frantic novelists on Twitter and in the forums, and enjoy more Camp-themed puns and merchandise than you can shake a canoe paddle at.
(Some of the camp-themed puns are better than others. Let’s just pretend that shaking a canoe paddle is something that happens at camp, OK? Great. We never had this conversation. Things in parentheses are secret, right?)
So it is with great paddle-shaking delight that we announce that Camp NaNoWriMo 2012 is open and ready for business! Camp sessions will take place in June and August, and you can participate in either…or both! So mosey on over to the Campsite (get it? I hope you like that pun, because we can’t get enough of it) and start thinking about your epic summer masterpiece.
