This is a wierd word; one which even I hadn't heard till a friend told me. So, what I'm going to do is put you in contact with the basics from other sites.

National Novel Writing Month, shortened as NaNoWriMo (na-noh-RY-moh), is an annual internet-based creative writing project that takes place every November. NaNoWriMo challenges participants to write 50,000 words of a new novel between November 1 and 30. Despite its name, it accepts entries from around the world. The goal of NaNoWriMo is to get people writing, no matter how bad the writing is, through the end of a first draft. The idea is that many people are scared to start writing because it won't be any good, and if there's a time to celebrate length, rather than quality, more people will write an entire first draft, which they can then proceed to edit if they wish.
For more information, please check out this site: http://nanowrimo.org/
Using the basics of this event, we would like to organize something similar on a smaller scale. The word limit being kept at 600-900 words, and the time being shortened to a fortnight, we allow you to write a short story on any lines, and any genre.
You can contact us on our Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/writer.foundation and can post your entries on the page itself or as a message. We will put all of these up here to read.
Awaiting your response.
