NaPIBoWriWee 2010!
National Picture Book Writing Week begins at Midnight tonight (May 1st) and ends at 11:59pm on May 7th. Seven books in Seven days. Are you in? If you are hop over to Paula Yoo's blog and register. You can research, outline, and brainstorm until midnight tonight then start writing. No first drafts. No cheating. When the clock strikes twelve grab your keyboard and make your way to seven new manuscripts. Remember pictures books can range in size from 50 words to 2,000.
Have fun! Be creative! Let your VOICE shine through...
Happy Writing!
Whoa! Thank you for helping me out. I thought it started last night at midnight. Good thing I'm running behind on making my bulletin or I would have already started. Thanks so much.

hi
ReplyDeleteWhat a great acronym...! I was going NaPi- what??
Now I know!
GOOD LUCK to all who are doing this - sounds pretty intense but such a lot of fun - nothing like pressure to make one as creative as possible!
Take care

Good luck to everyone!
ReplyDeleteHave left you a little something on my blog:)
PS. Don't worry, you don't have to play by the rules. I never do :)
Thanks for the heads up! I really should concentrate on my MG, but would love to go back to PB's for a week. I think I might!
ReplyDeleteGood luck! Sounds like a lot of work, but I know you're up to it. :)

This has been such a crazy week that I decided that I would choose my own week a little later in the month. Good luck to all of you and hope you end up with some good material.
ReplyDeleteJudith--In all honesty, I've been struggling to find writing time this week...Thanks for stopping by. :)
