Writers up to the challenge

NASHUA – National Novel Writing Month is over and writers of all ages around the globe are now resting their weary fingers and hands. For the Young Writers challenge, kids can pick their own goal for which to strive. Adults commit to 50,000 words within the 30-day period starting at midnight Nov. 1 and ending at midnight Nov. 30. Four Nashua residents who started NaNoWriMo have completed the challenge. Nashua siblings Anna and Trevor Lavalla participated in the Young Writers Challenge for the first time this year.
