Nicki's Note:

I greatly appreciate everyone who has helped me raise money for my favorite cause and nonprofit, the Office of Letters and Light. My boss tells me that everyone needs a cause, and this is mine. I explained NaNoWriMo to someone recently like this: discovering NaNoWriMo was like finding out that I was missing a limb, and then getting it reattached so I could function property. I never knew what I was missing, but now that I know, I simply could not live without it.

Thank you eternally for your support.

Love, Nicki

Dear Friends, Family, and Righteous Supporters,

On November 20, the Office of Letters and Light will be bringing together the most mighty of endurance novelists for an event that will define our generation forever.

I'm speaking, of course, of National Novel Writing Month's Night of Writing Dangerously. It's a write-a-thon, and it will take place at the beautiful Julia Morgan Ballroom in downtown San Francisco. I will be there (as I was last year with my dad), writing my heart out and raising money for the Office of Letters and Light, NaNoWriMo's parent nonprofit. (Would you like to learn more? See the OLL Commercial above!)

 

 

Attendees like me who want to bring a guest must raise $350 to get in the door, and from there, a rich array of prizes, delicious food, and sumptuous writing time awaits. But this is not about me getting a treat-filled night of literary abandon. This is about children and adults getting the encouragement, structure, and inspiration they need to achieve their creative potential. Proceeds from the event will fund National Novel Writing Month's free creative writing programs in hundreds of schools and communities around the world.

 

 

The Office of Letters and Light does inspiration like nobody else (did I mention I'm writing an entire novel this November?). And on their behalf, I am asking you to donate.

Also, I will let you touch my raffle prizes if I win some.

Thank you for supporting me in my novel-writing quest, and for helping the Office of Letters and Light create a more engaged and inspiring world.
