7 Lessons on Creativity I Learned from Writing a Novel in a Month

As many writerly types know, November is National Novel Writing Month when almost half a million people around the globe attempt to write a 50,000 (or more) word novel in 30 days. This past year, I decided to join the ranks for the first time and became one of the “Wrimos” to complete the challenge. It was a transformational experience. Here is what I learned.

While I’ve been writing about writing (duh), I think that many of these lessons apply to all of the creative arts. I hope you have found some of it useful, or better yet, inspirational. It’s a New Year. Go out and chase that creative dream.
