A science writer risks NaNoWriMo

NaNoWriMo stands for National Novel Writing Month and we're in it right now — or at least Barry Shell, a Vancouver freelance writer, is in it. Shell writes about what it's like to switch to fiction from writing about university research: "They say that by week three most NaNoWriMo participants get stuck, and the best advice at that point: kill off one of your characters. So I know that day will come." Also, why writers should join NaNoWriMo.
