WrimoRadio

Germany and Austria have long been a powerhouse NaNoWriMo regional combo. For our last episode of 2008, WrimoRadio travels to Europe and speaks with the region's ML, Micha, to learn the secrets of the area's success. Plus, we’ll hear how Wrimos the world over are celebrating the end of NaNoWriMo!

NaNoWriMo's sleep-deprived Program Director Chris Baty says goodbye to the month, and hello to the action-packed weeks ahead.

Lights! Camera! Action! Here, in the closing hours of NaNoWriMo 2008, WrimoRadio brings you a conversation with Sara Gruen, whose NaNo novel Water For Elephants is being made into a major motion picture! Tune in to hear about your role in the film.

Today on WrimoRadio, we interview a soldier who is noveling in Baghdad. Then it’s on to Los Angeles, to hear from a group of Young Writers. We also have one last QOTW for you to answer!

Get your motor running…today on WrimoRadio we’re revving up our engines in preparation for the final week of the challenge. Today, we get the scoop on what to expect during Week Four from our New York Nanos, and hear your answers to our QOTW!

WrimoRadio welcomes Chris Baty back to our studios for a chat with Ian Randall Wilson, who teaches NaNoWriMo to UCLA students. Also: Word of the Week, and a chance to dance your writing blues away with our end-of-episode funk party!

Today, WrimoRadio looks at noveling in the workplace with Nanos from London and Seattle. Do their bosses know? Is NaNoWriMo responsible for a global dip in productivity in November? Tune in and find out!

Today on WrimoRadio, we’ll hear your answers to our Question of the Week. Thanks to everyone who responded—your answers were fantastic! Once again, we’ll visit with our NYC Nanos, who describe what to expect in Week Three and relate a NaNo anecdote of serious badliness that is very appropriate for this week.

WrimoRadio wraps up Week Two with a visit from Toronto ML Debs, one of the co-producers of the NaNoWriMusic 2008 CD. We’ll hear some selections from the disc, and chat with Debs about the stories behind the songs.

UPDATE: WrimoRadio's Santa Barbara studios are under fire evacuation orders, so Friday's episode will be delayed. The podcast must go on; we'll just be a day or two late!

Recently, NaNoWriMo got tagged as "an underground dating site for book nerds." To see if there's any truth to the rumors, we headed to Britain, Nashville, and the Pacific Northwest to poll some NaNo singles on their November love lives.
