ITC: 145 - How to "Win" at NaNoWriMo
(Last Updated On: January 21, 2022)

Yesterday, I successfully hit 50,000 words for not one but two different projects for NaNoWriMo. Here are some of the lessons I had learned along the way.

During two previous attempts at NaNoWriMo or the National Novel Writing Month, I failed to hit the 50,000 word mark while working on just one project.So I had to try something different. 

I recognized that I could not find enough time to craft the words by hand. This year I switched to dictation and that made all the difference.  

This week, I am going to share tips for successfully getting through a time consuming project like NaNoWriMo.

    Good Evening Dr. Skrabut:

    I am a PhD candidate for the instructional designer technology program at Liberty University. This week’s assignment is to reach out to professionals that are in the field utilizing social media and ask them what tools are being used in the field and what advice would you give students that are going to be entering the field?
    Thank you;
