First things first, if you have not signed on NaNoWriMo take the plunge. I took a few days back a few years ago and came up with a pseudonym when I signed up. Another way to dodge the fear is to hide behind a fictitious name. I wish I would have done it the year before because a whole new world opens up for you when you sign up. It is a great online community where everyone is cheering for you but they want the same thing, 50,000 words by the end of November.
Last year was the first year I followed NaNoWriMo on Twitter. Err confession, I actually had to create a twitter account to follow them. I like my Facebook and I feel like all the different social media sites is redundancy. Unless, one is used different than the other.
NaNoWriMo uses social media sites differently. They don't post these same things on all the media sites all the time. My Favorite is @NaNoWordSprints on Twitter. Most of the year they are quite little mice but come November it is a very useful tool for the writer that needs challenges, cheering and social writing without leaving home. An introverts dream!
Today NaNoWriMo is doing a webinar. All things you will know about when you sign up on their site (hint, hint).

NaNo Prep webinar
Wednesday, October 14, 4 PM PST
Authors Kami Garcia, Ellen Hopkins, Jonathan Maberry, and Danielle Paige will be on hand to act as your noveling consultants!
Note that NaNoWriMo headquarters is in California so adjust your time accordingly. I made the title a link and it should take you to the right place.....should. I try to watch these when I can. Some of their webinars are in the afternoon for me, morning for them. Keep an eye out and find one you can watch the times vary.
