What is NaNo 2.0???
Liz is off cruising the Mediterranean, so this week you get ~ solo Kristina ~ talking about a new website making the rounds that we may have had a hand in...NaNo2.org is a community-focused hub for all things NaNoWriMo, created entirely by community volunteers and former staff who left the org way before it started going downhill. The goal is to provide resources and encouragement for current participants, information for new participants, and to highlight all the great NaNo alternatives that have been popping up in the wake of the former program's destruction. Check it out, or don't! It's cool! <3 Send us a textSupport the showEnjoy the show? Like this episode, give a thumbs up, or better yet - leave a review!
