4: NaNoWriMo Published

So when I first came up with all the topics for the NaNoWriMo count-down, I thought in this post I would give a short synopsis of all the books written during NaNoWriMo that had been published, but that was before I realized exactly how many NaNo books have been published. A lot, actually, after I did some research. Sooo, since I am lazy I don't want to take the time to compile them all onto this blog post, and since I am also too lazy to come up with a different theme for today's post, here is a link on the NaNoWriMo website that lists most of the published NaNo books. http://www.nanowrimo.org/publishedwrimos.

True, the majority of these books weren't written in November, that be it, and then get published. Many of the novels completely changed during the long and troublesome editing process. After all, NaNoWriMo isn't to make works of art, but rather to write a lot to get it out of you, and then make it a work of art if you so desire. Many of the authors who's books are published didn't even finish the rough draft during NaNoWriMo. Several got 50,000 words of their rough draft done, but several of the novels are many pages longer than that.

Anyway, it is still really cool to know that many books written during this crazy month of literary abandon. It makes m, at least feel a part of something more than just writing a book all by myself.
