I am attempting for the first time this year and I am doing well so far. I hit my goal of 12k+ and I still have to do some writing tonight. For those that don't know about it, the point is to write 50k words in the month of November It's basically just to challenge yourself to see if you can do it, but there are a couple of perks for 'winning'.

Like getting a free proof copy of your novel! The you'll have your novel in book form to let other people read. How awesome is that?
