Welcome to Season 6! You might have noticed we've done a bit of a rebrand... this podcast (formerly known as How To Win NaNo) is now called "Write Your Damn Novel"! In the first episode of our new season, hosts Kristina and Liz talk a bit about what's been going on with the NaNoWriMo organization and why we felt the need to distance ourselves from it.
Things wont change too much around here otherwise, as we still plan to write 50,000 words in November. It might just look a little different from now on.Enjoy the show? Like this episode, give a thumbs up, or better yet - leave a review!
