Write Your Book in 30 Days:
Join NaNoWriMo and DreamWriterInk’s Novel November!

November is the month for writers with a dream and a deadline. National Novel Writing Month—better known as NaNoWriMo—challenges authors around the world to write 50,000 words in 30 days. That’s 1,667 words a day. No more waiting. No more “someday.” November is your moment to sit down, shut out distractions, and finally write the book you’ve been carrying in your spirit for years.
​
This year, DreamWriterInk! Writing & Publishing is going ALL IN with Novel November, a month-long experience created to push, motivate, and support authors just like you. If you want daily inspiration, accountability, writing community, and real progress on your manuscript, you’re in the right place.

🌟 Why Novel November Matters More Than NaNoWriMo

Picture
Novel November works for one simple reason: consistency. When you commit to writing every single day, something powerful happens. You build momentum. Your characters become real. Your confidence grows. Your story stops living in your head and finally shows up on the page.

Authors don’t become authors by thinking. They become authors by writing.

How DreamWriterInk Will Support You All Month Long

Throughout November, DreamWriterInk will keep you fired up and on track with:
  • Daily motivation and writing reminders
  • Word-count accountability
  • Weekly check-ins to keep you consistent
  • Live community write-ins
  • Free resources, tools, and writing gifts
  • Encouragement for days you feel like quitting

You’re not writing alone this year. You have a tribe, a tribe of Dreamers just like you!!

Show up for your story. Show up for your gift. Most of all--show up for yourself.
​

This is your month. Let’s write.
Picture

It's Never Too Late to Start Writing...Again

Picture
Let’s be honest: life gets loud.


Your book didn’t stall because you don’t care. It stalled because you are human… with responsibilities, emotions, exhaustion, and real-world demands.


But your story? It is still calling you.
​


And you are still a writer.

🤍 First: Release the Shame

Picture
Stop saying:


  • “I should’ve finished by now.”
  • “I keep starting and stopping.”
  • “If I was a real writer, I’d be done.”


No.
You are a real writer. You’re here. You’re reading this. You’re returning.
That counts.
And today, we begin again — gently.

 Your Story Is Bigger Than the Pause
​;

Picture
Your book is not just words on a page.
It’s:
  • A piece of your healing
  • Someone else’s breakthrough
  • A legacy your name will be attached to
  • A world only you can build
  • ​
When you write, you are not just creating a book — You are becoming the version of yourself who finishes.


​🕯️ This Month Is Your Reset:
​Welcome to Novel November

Picture

Novel November is your chance to recommit to your story with structure, support, and community, not pressure.

The goal is not perfection. The goal is not editing. The goal is showing up every day — even for 10 minutes — and writing forward.

This is how books get written. This is how confidence returns. This is how the story opens back up.

📝 Interactive Activity #1 — Your Daily Writing Time
Choose a writing window for November:
Morning • Afternoon • Night


Now complete this sentence:
I will write every day at ______ for ______ minutes.
​

Put it in your phone calendar. Set a reminder. Give your writing a time, and your writing will show up for you.



🎯 Interactive Activity #2 — Choose Your Daily Word Goal

Your goal shouldn’t stress you. It should invite you.

Choose one:

Gentle 200–400 words/dayPerfect for busy schedules

Steady 500–800 words/dayYou’ll finish a draft before the month ends

Challenge 1,000–1,500 words/dayPush, focus, discipline


Now write it down:

My daily word count goal is ________.

Write it on a sticky note. Place it somewhere visible.


Your story deserves space.



✍🏾 Interactive Activity #3 — The Writing Ritual (2 Minutes)Before writing each day:



  1. Light a candle, or take 3 deep breaths
  2. Say out loud:


“I am a writer. My story matters. I am showing up today.”

  1. Begin writing — without editing
  2. Stop while you still have something to say


This keeps momentum alive.

​​

💫 You Don’t Need Motivation.
You Need a Habit.

Picture
Motivation fades. Habits carry you.
And habits are built through:



  • Consistency
  • Grace
  • Tiny daily effort


Writing every day — even a little — changes you.
By the end of Novel November, you won’t just have pages. You’ll have momentum. And momentum is where breakthroughs happen.
Picture

🤎 Final Word: Your Book Isn’t Waiting. It’s Ready.

Picture
Return to the page as if you were returning to yourself. The story didn’t leave you. It has been waiting — patiently — for you to return. Start today. Write your 200… or 800… or 1400 words. Just show up.

Your future author self is already thanking you.


💡 21 Things Authors Can Do to
​Sell More Books & Build Income

Picture
Becoming a published author is an incredible achievement—but publishing your book is only the beginning. If you’ve ever wondered how to sell more books or asked yourself, “Can authors really make a living from writing?” the answer is yes—but it requires thinking beyond book sales alone. Today’s authors have more opportunities than ever to create multiple streams of income from their books. Whether you’re a first-time writer or an experienced author, here are 21 proven ways to sell more books and build long-term income as an author.

📚 Direct Book-Boosting Strategies

  1. Host Book Readings and Signings – Local libraries, bookstores, and even coffee shops are great venues. Pair live events with bulk book sales.
  2. Bundle Your Book – Offer a package deal with a workbook, journal, or audiobook. Bundles increase value and profits.
  3. Pitch to Book Clubs – Book clubs often buy in bulk. Offer discussion guides or virtual Q&A sessions.
  4. Collaborate with Other Authors – Cross-promote books in similar genres.
  5. Create Seasonal Promotions – Tie your book to holidays, awareness months, or community events.

🎤 Teaching & Speaking Engagements

Teach a Class or Workshop – Turn your expertise into a class (memoir writing, cooking, self-help, business).
Offer School Visits – Children’s and YA authors can connect with schools, which often purchase classroom sets.
Speak at Conferences or Churches – Many organizations pay speaker fees plus buy your books in bulk.
Host a Community Workshop – Partner with nonprofits, libraries, or local businesses for paid teaching opportunities.
Picture

💻 Digital Products and Online Sales

Create a Workbook or Study Guide – Perfect for self-help, memoir, or nonfiction authors.

Launch an Online Course –
Use platforms like Udemy, Teachable, or your own website.

Sell Journals, Planners, or Printables – Great passive income for authors in personal growth, spirituality, or education.

Record an Audiobook – The audiobook industry is booming, and readers love listening on the go.
​

Offer Branded Merchandise – T-shirts, bookmarks, mugs, or tote bags tied to your book’s theme.

Picture

🌐 Build Online Visibility

  1. Start a YouTube Channel – Teach or share content around your book’s theme.
  2. Be a Podcast Guest – Reach new audiences by sharing your story and expertise.
  3. Grow an Email List – Offer a free resource (checklist, short story, or workbook) to build a loyal audience.
  4. Host a Virtual Summit or Webinar – Collaborate with other experts and sell your book at the end.
Picture

🧲 Creative Engagement Ideas

  1. Launch a 30-Day Challenge – Example: “30 Days of Gratitude” if your book is inspirational.
  2. Create a Patreon or Membership Program – Offer exclusive content and behind-the-scenes access.
  3. Crowdfund Your Next Book – Platforms like Kickstarter let readers pre-buy your book and fund your project.
