South Euclid-Lyndhurst Branch

Writer’s Center Conference Room (65)

Learn about NaNoWriMo and how to write a novel in a month.

Always wanted to write a novel? Now’s the time to try! National Novel Writing Month, or "NaNoWriMo," is a national nonprofit organization that challenges and encourages you to write a 50,000 word novel in November. (Truthfully, it's more like a first draft of a novel, but that's the point: to get it out of your head and onto the page.)

Come learn about NaNoWriMo and get inspired by writers who have actually written a 50,000-word novel in a month. 

We'll also help you register for your free NaNoWriMo account to get started. Bring your laptop or use one of the library's.

Learn more at NaNoWriMo.org and check out No Plot? No Problem! by its founder Chris Baty.

About the branch

The City of South Euclid will conduct a resurfacing project on South Green Road between Mayfield Road and Cedar Road that we anticipate will result in travel delays. The resurfacing project is expected to begin Monday, April 3, 2023, and continue through late fall. During that time, we encourage all visitors to the South Euclid-Lyndhurst Branch of Cuyahoga County Public Library to plan accordingly and allow themselves ample travel time. The South Euclid-Lyndhurst Branch will remain open for normal hours of operation during construction.  

Click here for more information about the Green Road resurfacing project from the Cuyahoga County Department of Public Works.
