Newcastle & Hunter Valley Writers?

I'm from the Hunter Valley. I'm about a 45 min drive from Newcastle though

I only wish that bluebird... won't be just another unattainable illusion

I am in Newcastle. There is a thread of Newcastle introductions over in the "Australia: Sydney" region.

Hi,

I am Wallsend.

Regards

Anyone interested in getting together for a "write-in" sometime over november? I posted the following in the NEwcastle intro thread on the "Sydney" region forums;

With a couple of kids I don't get out to too many coffee shops these days so I don't know which would be amenable to an invasion of writers (or would have enough powerpoints for laptops). Libraries might be an option, though I don't know where we would get coffee! I know the Wallsend library is very new, has little conference rooms and is open late weeknights (well, late for a public library - 8pm).

Who is keen?

*Raises hand*

Novacastrian here. Glad to see there is a few of us.

Hi Sir Josiah!

I'm keen too. First time at this too.

Me too. How should we communicate the plans for meet ups etc?
Should we just post here or over on the "Newcastle" thread on the Sydney regional page, or should we all "buddy" each other?

Nice to meet you all

Jim

I haven't been over to the Sydney one yet so I don't know how many of us have congregated there. If NaNo doesn't want to give us a region then Elsewhere seems like the place to be though.

I don't think it really matters, all I know is its 1am one day into NaNo and I've only had one cup of coffee. Brain not quite coping.

Hope everyone's writing is going much better than mine ;)

Hey everyone :-) *waves* I'm from the Maitland area, anyone close to me?

Hey all, Newy here also!
First time NaNo-er as well. I'm a bit behind but it's an even chance I'll complete this thing.

Well, okay, it's not haha I expect life will railroad me out of the event as usual, but I'm having a red-hot go at it.

There is a write-in at the Wallsend Library this Monday (23rd) from 5.30pm. We will be in a little glass booth with laptops. I can't get there before 6pm this time, but I am sure others will be there.

Cheers,
Nathan

Hi Nathan,

When you say 'others', how many people normally get there?
