KanMoWriCo Region: USA::Missouri::Kansas City

The KanMoWriCo Region of National Novel Writing Month is formally named The Kansas-Missouri Writing Collective. Serving not only the Kansas City, Missouri side of the metro, KanMoWriCo actively embraces the Kansas City, Kansas side as well!

Organizing and responsible for local events are the following officially appointed, NaNoWriMo Municipal Liaisons:

Teri Stettnisch - aka poetT
Cylithria Dubois - aka eensybeensyspider
Rob Rafferty - aka teamevil

Along with The Office of Letters and Light, the KanMoWriCo Region believes in ambitious acts of imagination. Encouraging local adults and young writers to explore the vast and wondrous expanses of 30 days of literary abandon during the month of November, April, June, and August OLL Events.

Providing free, open to the public events, and sharing support and years of experience, we aim to help the Kansas City Metro Regions with programming from the worlds largest literary nonprofit.

National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo)challenges you to write a 50,000-word novel, from scratch, in the month of November. It's a global, uproariously fun endeavor, where participants exchange advice and writing tips on the NaNoWriMo website and in real life, with group write-ins held in coffeeshops, living rooms, and libraries all around the world. In 2010, 200,500 people took part in National Novel Writing Month.www.nanowrimo.org

The NaNoWriMo Young Writers Program (NaNoWriMo YWP)also takes place in November, offering a similarly exhilarating prose adventure for 12-and-under authors and those taking part in NaNoWriMo as part of a K-12 classroom.
