I’ve been familiar with “National Novel Writing Month” for a while now, but I found out about “National Novel Generation Month” just a few days ago. Like all great projects it came from an idea tweeted on a whim. Instead of spending the month laboring over a novel, why not spend the month writing some code, and have a computer generate the novel for you? All of the generated projects are open source and shared on github. Some of them are a little too data-sciencey (a word i just made up) for my tastes, but others are pretty great. I’m posting my favs in the comment thread below. I think that Steve Kemple (creator of the amazing Dada News Daily, artist, librarian, and one of the CONSENSUSCON 2014 - rewrite the book on writing books guest speakers-- HAPPENING IN JUST TEN DAYS) is really gonna love this.
