No Plot? No Problem!: A Low-Stress, High-Velocity Guide to Writing a Novel in 30 Days
This is the NaNoWriMo* handbook. It's perfect for the task in that it contains a limited amount of extremely suitable advice. It's also extremely funny. That makes it worth reading even for those writers who don't feel inclined to embark on a 50,000 word sprint. What it doesn't contain is a lot of detailed, highly technical knowledge about what good writing should be like. That just wouldn't be in the NaNoWriMo spirit!* In case anyone didn't know, NaNoWriMo is an annual novel writing event in which participants dedicate themselves to the task of writing a 50,000 word novel in the month of November.
