Learning from Nanowrimo

Kelly Armstrong writes about what she learned from NaNoWriMo. A professional writer, Armstrong still said she learned things about her writing process she had never known before or only suspected.
I've only recently found the blog Storytellers Unplugged. It's a joint blog filled with mini-essays by horror and dark fantasy writers like Gary Braunbeck, Douglas Clegg, Brian Keene, Tim Lebbon, Matt Schwarz, Scott Nicholson and many more. It's got a lot of great stuff, especially if you're interested in writing.
