NaNoWriMo Challenge Prepping & Share Your Story - R-SPEC Rochester Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror - Bring your powem, short story or other in-progress work and join us for our reading meeting

On October 3, you're invited to share your story, poem, or any writing roadblocks you're facing. Bring a piece with fewer than 1,000 words, if you can, but no more than 2,000 words, if you can't break the scene. This helps give everyone sufficient reading and feedback time.

Writing a novel can be difficult for any writer. What if you had a "coach and guardrails" to help you start, create, and finish your novel? To help prepare you for the November NaNoWriMo challenge, we'll talk about their process, and how signing up for free at https://NaNoWriMo.org helps you to get organized, set milestones, track your writing progress, and commiserate with other writers.

If time permits after the readings, we'll share with the group what we're currently reading.

  • Moderator: Alan Vincent Michaels
  • Location: Our November meeting will be in person at Barnes & Noble, Pittsford and on Zoom. (Please join us at least 10 minutes before the 7:00 p.m. start time to ensure a good connection.)
  • Meeting Time: Tuesday, October 3, 2023 from 6:30-8:45 p.m.
