+A: '''Absolutely nothing is required''' to participate in Novel Quest.
 Q: What do the winners get? <br>
-A: A PDF file proclaiming them NaNoWriMo winners if they manage to complete at least 50,000 words in 30 days. More importantly, the happiness of completing at least 50,0000 words of a novel.
+A: A PDF file proclaiming them winners if they manage to complete their pre-stated project goal (e.g., 50,000 words written in 30 days). Each participant can set their own goal. More importantly, winners achieve the happiness of completing their writing or editing project.

+A: Check out the '''[[2024 Events]]''' page for detailed information about the local events.
 Q: 50,000 words in 30 days seems foolhardy... <br>
-A: Actually, it turns out to be roughly 1,670 words per day, which turns out to be manageable. There are some exceptionally prolific writers who produce four times that amount... but many just barely get over the hump. The NaNoWriMo website and online discussion forums provide a lot of support; and we are organizing some weekly meetings locally for participants to use for writing and discussing their work.
