Tomorrow is the day the first Camp NaNoWriMo takes place!
What is Camp NaNoWriMo? Here is the definition the program itself has given:
"Camp NaNoWriMo is a virtual writer’s retreat, designed for maximum flexibility and creativity. We have Camp sessions in both April and July, and we welcome word-count goals between 30 and 1,000,000. In addition, writers can tackle any project they’d like, including new novel drafts, revision, poetry, scripts, and short stories."

In summary Camp NaNoWriMo is a variation of NaNoWriMo (which you can find more information about here http://nanowrimo.org ). Camp NaNoWriMo takes place in the months of April and July, where you set a word count goal from 30 words to 1,000,000 for any type of writing project, you then have the whole of that month to be able to reach your goal.
Cam NaNoWriMo also has a feature called cabins where you are put with a group of people (you can select your preferences) who are also tackling this writing project, you can talk to them and share advice and inspiration with them, it's a great way to connect with people who all have one common interest - writing.
I will be taking part this year in the hopes of achieving a word count of 20,000. For this Camp NaNoWriMo I will be attempting to write a sort of medieval fantasy novel (think Game of Thrones but with more magic) which I have been planning for just over a year.
I hope you all enjoy Camp NaNoWriMo and good luck (if you are participating)! If you've read this most too late and have ran out of time to participate this April, then don't worry, you can participate in June, or in November with NaNoWriMo. If you are participating, comment below and let me know what your word count goal is or what you're planning to write! Or if you would like more information then please comment below!
I will do an update at the end of the month to let you know how Camp NaNoWriMo went for me!
