Here is a list of bloggers who will be participating in NaNoBloPo during November. (If you're joining in and don't see your blog here, please leave a link in the comments. I would love to add you.) This means that you can expect to see a post from them each day this month, so click the links and cheer them on! A little friendly encouragement is a good thing.
I've also gathered a list of prompts for use when you want to write, but you just can't get going. Thanks to everyone who helped me get this list together! Even if you're not in the NaNoBloPo marathon, these topics might spark something for use in your own writing.
