Hm. Missed that decline, not having looked for a few years, I must admit. Feeling a little sad about it.

Being a little procrastinator myself, in earlier times I always found NaNoWriMo a good way to "get going" and actually write…

Then again, as my daughter (an author) puts it: "AI destroys creativity. Writing is about original ideas, not machine-generated copy-pasting. This is not for me."

Or is that linked article just an April Fool’s? Note the article’s date: 8:32 AM PDT · April 1, 2025.

It's not an "April Fool" joke. NaNoWrMo as an organisation is no more.
