So I've decided to host a little kick off way up here in grande prairie and wondering if there is anyone in the area that would like to attend and where and when we would meet. I haven't attended a kick off since 2005 so Im very excited about this and I would love to meet other writer from around the area. If anyone is interested please let me know ^_^

Yes Yes!!!
Two of us here would definitely be interested!!!!!
A coffee shop would be great - Esquires? They don't seem to mind rowdy groups in my experience.

Wait... there are two Esquires now? Man, that place grows like a weed. Definitely time for me to pay another visit.
Anyway, I just want to say that this is a great idea, and that anyone in Grande Prairie should seriously consider joining in:
Have fun, and make sure you let me know how it went!

I'm happy to host mini parties in my dorm too. I can only handle about...oh...twelve people, but I promise to provide hot chocolate/tea/juice and a power hook up! Sadly, I don't have open internet, but NaNo parties aren't about internet, they're about mad sprinting!
Besides, we could always have breaks in between sprints and watch inspiring movies. I have a good collection of...oh...about 150 now, and I'm sure we can find SOMETHING pertaining to our NaNo novels!
Can you all tell I'm rambling? I'm just so stoked! I did NaNo in Fort St John last year and I didn't have anyone arranging parties and what not, so this is incredibly exciting for me!

Heh, I'll have to ride the number four once before the meeting day, so I know where in the heck I'm going. I only ever ride the number five. I don't even know what Esquires looks like!

Yeah...I don't know where that is either. I think I'll bribe my roommate for a ride *grins*
I know I know, I need to get a life. But I really don't know many people here, so I don't go out, which means I barely know this city. Geeze...I feel like such a wuss *snickers* Silly me!

Hi everyone, nano newbie here, and I'm a little freaked out that I actually signed up. So, yeah, I might be interested in coming to a kick off thingy that involves coffee or hot chocolate. Has a date been set yet?

I don't see the problem with making it an official kick-off... Nov. 1 at 7:00PM, then? That's a Thursday, and they're open until 10:00PM. The West Esquire's, near Gold's Gym.
