It's a good thing to think at stopping people only dream about, or (write a novel about what most of us do) always could, and instead to actually ever and she writes off. This canonly a good thing. It's only for a month, so it is not going to interrupt your life for too long. And it is in November, if not much else happened anyway.

So it is indeed possible for a novel to write in 30 days? Not most novels take write at least one year? Well, 50,000 words in 30 working days to 1667 words per day – that is the same length as a short story or a moderately long article's. The journalists should have no trouble achieving that – it is the kind of thingChurn it every single day.

And in fact some very famous authors have written many more novels in a fraction of the time. Take the example of Ray Bradbury, who "wrote" Fahrenheit 451 "in just over nine days. Okay, it's not a particularly long novel at 192 pages – but nine days is still pretty impressive.

But nine days is not a record. Bradbury was slightly undercut by Stephen King on (as Richard Bachman), who wrote one of his novels in just seven days.Interestingly, King started his Bachman pseudonym, because he wrote novels faster than his publisher was willing to release it. A Stephen King novel, per year, more than adequate, they said. The public will not accept more. And so in addition to Mr. Bachman, and King's productivity (and also doubled prosperity). The type of a book every seven days, King said another 50 pseudonyms have been needed to keep its publishers happy. As far as I've known it is only the one, he mustdecided to take things a little quieter then!

But seven days is hardly a record is not. One of the most prolific writers in the world was the Belgian writer Georges Simenon, the creator of the policeman, "Maigret". Simenon regularly produces up to write 80 pages a day and has a novel in only six days. And yes, also a pseudonym, which allows him to publish more books. But for him, a pseudonym was simply not enough, he had more than two dozen of them! During his lifetime, Simenonwrote hundreds of novels and novellas, and short stories, articles, and autobiographical works. His famous detective "Maigret" appears in 75 of his novels, and in a further 28 short stories.

Even more amazing – though not if you know the secret – is the story of French writer Alexandre Dumas. Besides being a prolific writer whose works include "The Count of Monte Cristo" and "The Three Musketeers, Dumas was also a successful playwright. Once he has placed a bet with aFriend, he could write a whole piece – one of his "Comedies Boulevard '- in just three days. His friend accepted the bet feeling that Dumas was trying the impossible, and would lose the bet. He was wrong. Dumas was out of his Office less than 72 hours later took the finished script.

Not to be outdone, said the American writer Jack Kerouac "The Subterraneans" – another fairly short novel at 192 pages – for just three days. Now, of course, Kerouac was a bit of aSpinner, and he was probably all day and all night for these three days to finish it. But when the muse hits, it's always a good idea to stay with her if you can – even if it means the renunciation of food and sleep (but no alcohol – in his case, anyway). Kerouac was formerly a sports reporter who undoubtedly want an excellent education for all novel-writing break records.

Speaking of records, we look at the Guinness world record holder at this event: Lady BarbaraCartland. Dame Barbara was a prolific writer in her long career, publishing 723 novels during her lifetime and posthumously well over a hundred more. Their most productive year was 1983, when they are conceived 26 novels – written and published the amount of one every 14 days worked. This record is unlikely to be interrupted for a long time. Cartland is also listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the world's top-selling author with more than one billion pounds.

With all thatbecause, let's return to National Novel Writing Month. Yes, a whole month! It does not seem so difficult now, is not it? All you need is a great idea, and most of us have at least a novel clog our heads are dying. I know I do. Perhaps the year, eventually selling to be written.

If you are thinking of joining the 100,000 people who will enter the National Novel Writing Month this year – as fans affectionately call NaNoWriMo – here are a few tips from aPublished writer:

Try to make your novel more than 50,000 words. Most commercial novels are at least 80,000 words, so for the goal, if you hope to get your book published.

NaNoWriMo is only about the process of writing. There is nothing stopping you plan your novel and writing a detailed outline before the event. And also has editing your novel and turned it into something for publication may, after the 30-day period will be passed out. IndeedThere is another event as a National Novel Editing Month (NaNoEdMo), provides for this process and it takes place in March.

My typing speed is not very fast – say 50 words per minute. When I enter NaNoWriMo this year, I had set my target at 80,000 words or 2667 words per day. I would have done the planning already, and I would leave for later processing. So, typing at 50 words per minute, it should reach me less than 55 minutes to my daily goal. Even the busiestPersons should be able to manage that – after all it is only for a month, and you'll have a finished novel to the end of it!
