NaNoWriMo
NaNoWriMo started a few days ago. I won't be participating, as I'm rehashing a novel I've been working on, and I'm not ready to start another project from scratch. But I am setting a goal to complete 50,000 words on it by the end of the month.
With NaNoWriMo's booming popularity, several companies have been offering various freebies and incentives. CreateSpace is offering a free proof copy of any winner's book. Instructions can be found at their website. Scrivener offers a free trial of their writing software. The NanoWriMo site has some great resources. If you are participating this year, let me know how you're doing. Keep me posted, and keep writing!
