What is NaNoWriMo?

National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) is an annual creative writing challenge where participants aim to write a 50,000-word novel during November. That’s about 1,667 words per day – a challenging but achievable goal with the right tools and mindset.

How Gorby Can Help You Win NaNoWriMo

1. Track Your Daily Writing Goals

Stay on target with Gorby’s writing goal feature. Set your daily goal of 1,667 words, and get instant notifications when you reach it. This immediate feedback helps maintain momentum and motivation throughout your writing session.

2. Analyze Readability for Your Target Audience

Whether you’re writing young adult fiction or a complex thriller, Gorby’s readability metrics help ensure your writing matches your intended audience’s reading level. Use scores like Flesch-Kincaid and Gunning Fog to maintain consistency throughout your chapters.

3. Analyze and Improve Sentence Variety

Understand your writing patterns with our detailed sentence length distribution analysis. The feature breaks down your sentences by length categories:

  • 0-5 words
  • 6-10 words
  • 11-15 words
  • 16-20 words
  • 21-30 words
  • 31+ words

Get personalized recommendations based on your writing style. For instance, if you have too many long sentences, Gorby might suggest adding more short sentences for clarity and emphasis. If you’re lacking medium-length sentences, it could recommend ways to combine shorter sentences for better flow.

4. Organize Your Chapters

While we recommend keeping your main manuscript in a dedicated word processor (like Word, Pages, or Google Docs), you can use Gorby’s Saved Texts feature to analyze individual chapters. This helps you maintain consistent style and readability across your novel.
