Chris Baty accidentally founded National Novel Writing Month in 1999, and oversaw its growth from 21 friends to more than 300,000 writers in 90 countries. Chris stepped down from running NaNoWriMo in 2013, and he now spends his days wrangling words at Figma and endlessly revising his own novels. He's the author of No Plot? No Problem! and the co-author of Ready, Set, Novel. His quest for the perfect cup of coffee is ongoing, and will likely kill him someday.
