National Novel Writing Month (#NaNoWriMo) Is Better With Bublish

National Novel Writing Month, also known as NaNoWriMo, starts November 1. The goal of the month-long event is to write 50,000 words in 30 days. Each year,  tens of thousands of writers from around the world participate. A number of best selling novels were started during NaNoWriMo, including Night Circus, Water for Elephants, Fangirl, Wool, The Darwin Elevator, and Cinder, Scarlet and Cress (three YA books by Marissa Meyer). NaNoWriMo has also been a successful launch pad for many successful writing careers.

Part of the appeal of NaNoWriMo is the sense of community. A worldwide audience cheers on participating authors. Through the #amwriting and #NaNoWriMo memes on social media, readers can watch authors write novels in real time. It brings the craft of writing to life and offers emerging authors who participate in NaNoWriMo a powerful platform-builder with global visibility.

With Bublish‘s integrated writing tool, writers can share excerpts right from their manuscript. It’s the only writing tool in the world with this innovative feature. Excerpts shared on social media through Bublish are called “rough cut” book bubbles (see image below). Think of a “rough cut” book bubble like a director’s cut for books. Sharing “rough cut” book bubbles while you write is a great way to draw readers into your creative journey throughout National Novel Writing Month. Not only can readers enjoy an excerpt from your manuscript, but they can learn more about your motivation, your characters…your “why” in the bubble’s Author Insight.

Later, when your book is ready to publish, just click a button and you’ll have an eBook ready to upload at KDP, Nook, iBooks, Kobo, Google Play and more. Yep, you’ll have a beautiful eBook ready to distribute in one click…AND…if you set up a pre-order campaign, you can drive traffic there by adding a pre-order button like the one in the “rough cut” bubble below. Talk about productivity! You can write your book, grow your audience, and build you eBook all at the same time. Now, THAT is a productive #NaNoWriMo2016!
