NaNoWriMo has fallen. A band of rebels known as NoNotWriMo has risen to take its place.

Every November, writers around the globe attempt to write 50,000 words in one month. But last year the organization behind the beloved National Novel Writing Month disintegrated.

In 2025, it's more important than ever to support feats of human creativity. So an intrepid group of humans has banded together to face the antagonist of our age.

Join us in the fight against the Modern Prometheus.
