Dear Friends, Family, and Righteous Supporters,

This November, I'm writing a novel. An entire novel, started from scratch, and completed in just one month, as part of National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo).

And you thought nothing interesting ever happened in November.

NaNoWriMo is free. I'm raising money to help the nonprofit that runs it build communities in classrooms, coffee shops, libraries, and living rooms all over the world and help the inspiration flow for me and thousands of my fellow novelists.

Every dollar I raise will keep my spirits high as I write my way towards the realization of my creative goals. More importantly, your contribution will help The Office of Letters and Light build a more engaged and inspiring world.

Any amount, big or small, makes a difference and I so appreciate your help and the fact that you believe in me enough to support me in this and by doing so, helping others.

This is my first year joining in with NaNoWriMo and I am very excited but also scared, but I have ALWAYS dreamt of being a writer and this is a step I am making for me - in a bid to live my dreams, even if only for a month.

I hope you will follow my progress and I would love any encouragement you can offer me.
