Thanks Goodness It's Over Party tomorrow! Vinny's East Pizzeria, 2:00 PM. Bring a story about your NaNo experience or an excerpt from your novel. =D Hope to see you all there!

Final write-in is tonight at 6:00 PM! =D Come join us for the last sprint!

Tomorrow is the midway point for NaNoWriMo! In celebration, bring an excerpt from your novel to the write-in tomorrow (Tuesday, November 15th) at the Caffe Paradiso! We will be sharing our excerpts at some point during the write-in and celebrating that we are halfway done!

Just a note that the write-in for this Saturday has been pushed back to 4:30 PM and it will be taking place in the Friends Conference Room on the second floor of the Champaign Public Library!

Announcement:

There is a new time and location for the Tuesday write-in! (starting November 7th)

Tuesday Write-in at 6:00 PM, Caffe Paradiso (801 S Lincoln Ave, Urbana, IL)

If the new time and location work well, we'll stick with them. If not, you will be seeing another announcement. :P

Ready? Set? GO!!!

Kickoff Party this Sunday!

We will be eating yummy Thai food at the Siam Terrace in Urbana, celebrating the imminent start of NaNoWriMo, continuing to get to know each other and just having a laidback lunch with our fellow writers before the insanity begins!

Here are the details:

Kickoff Party!
Sunday, October 30th at 1:00 PM
Siam Terrace in Urbana (212 W Main Street near the Lincoln Square Mall)

*not a potluck! We ended up scrapping that idea.

Hope to see you all there!

Come get to know your fellow WriMos at the Champaign-Urbana Get to Know You Party!

We will be meeting on October 22nd at 3 PM at the Piato Cafe in the Urbana Lincoln Square Mall for get-to-know-you games, writerly ranting and discussion of our NaNo novels! There will be snacks. :)

We will also be discussing times/locations for write-ins and the kick off party.

Hope to see you all there!

Hallo my fellow writerlies!

With November fast approaching, I want to encourage you all to check out NaNoWriMo's fancy schmancy flyers: http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/flyer

And don't just check them out. Feel free to tape them up wherever you go! In the library, on the walls, at your front door, on your forehead--a flyer and a tape dispenser can go a long way, and we want to mobilize as many writers as are crazy enough in our epic pursuit of the one-month, 50,000-word novel!
