Today we are going to set up our accounts for NaNoWriMo. Please follow the steps below to do that:
- Determine a word count goal for your novel by clicking HERE to view teacher recommendations.
- Then, visit the NaNoWriMo Young Writers Program page by clicking HERE.
- Select "Sign In" in the upper right corner.
- VERY IMPORTANT - For your User Name, please use your period, last name and first name initial. For example, if I was a student in period 1, my user name would be 1davenportj.
- Complete the rest of the sign up info - make sure you select the correct grade level (high school) and Young Writer (not Educator) for the account type.
- Please make sure to WRITE DOWN your log-in and password info. I will NOT have access to this information and will NOT be able to help you if you forget them.
- Once you account has been created - go to "Edit Novel Info" and enter your word count goal. You can also enter other information about your novel.
- On the left hand menu, you should see "Virtual Classroom," and below that "Join a Classroom." Select "Join a Classroom," and then search for "Ms. D's Wordbusters." When it shows up in the bottom window select it and click "Join."
- Finally, feel free to browse the website and enter in your own personal info under "Edit Author Info."
