Marissa chats with Grant Faulkner, Executive Director of National Novel Writing Month and author of PEP TALKS FOR WRITERS. In this NaNoWriMo-themed episode, we discuss the concept of "productive procrastination" and the joy of having secret side projects in the works; how to find little moments of "time confetti" to help move you toward your word count goal; using NaNo as a means to shake up your creative process, no matter how many words you ultimately write; and how it's okay to be a #NanoRebel and use the challenge to work on an existing project.
