November 14 is Donation Day! If you've ever thought about giving a few bucks to help ensure there's a NaNoWriMo next year, today's a fantastic day to do it. Watch http://www.twitter.com/NaNoWriMo for giveaways to a random contributor each hour!

Write-ins today (Wednesday, Nov. 7): In Boulder, at Atlas Purveyors/downtown 12:30-3ish; in Longmont, at Panera/Ken Pratt 6-9PM! ... are we really a whole week into November already?

Or if you are in Longmont, some Wrimos will be getting together to write at Basil Flats Restaurant on Hover between 4 and 6 PM, which conveniently aligns with a fundraiser such that 25% of restaurant sales will go to support the Niwot High School Band. Why not join them?

We've had to relocate to the Denny's on Baseline (between 30th and 28th) due to unexpectedness at the IHOP (do not blame IHOP! We love the IHOP!). Some 30 of us have settled in and are typing our first words for NaNoWriMo 2012 even as we speak!

Tonight's the night we get this party started! Join us at the Boulder IHOP from 11 PM until 2 AM. The writing starts promptly at midnight!

About us

In the late afternoon shadow of the Rocky Mountain Flatirons, a mighty region of writers came together to lift their pens, and a rushing river of story flowed from the foothills down across the plains. And that's how we got Boulder Creek.
