An Introduction

Find your people. Write your novel.

Write-ins

In-person write-ins provide motivation, community, and solidarity to help you keep working toward your goals. Who says writing has to be a solitary endeavor?

Discord

We have an active Discord community, perfect for long-distance writers and night owls. Run writing sprints with the bot and connect with other writers, anytime or from anywhere.

Facebook

For non-Discord users, we have built our community on another online platform. Join our Facebook group and start connecting to other writers! We may also host virtual write-ins here if there is interest.

Our Mission

At Denver Novel Writing Month (DenNoWriMo), we believe every great adventure starts with a blank page and the courage to fill it. We’re in the business of sparking imaginations, building creative tribes, and cheering on the dreamers, storytellers, and world-weavers of the Denver metro area and beyond—because your story deserves to be told.
