Anyone else out there from the Chatsworth, Dalton, Calhoun, etc. areas? I see that there are very few regional groups for Georgia so I'm curious to see who is in my area. :-)
Good luck to us all!

There's Kennesaw-area group (redcurlkennesaw is the ML), but I'm not sure about your area. Hope you find some folks to party with!

Thanks for the post Safira. Kennesaw is about 1 1/2 - 2 hrs south of me. Hopefully there are a few others from up here that will run across this thread. At least I hope so. LOL!

Hi! I'm in Rome, but I have just moved here from Chatsworth a few months ago. Maybe if we could find more people, we could have a write-in!
My name is Justin. =)

I live in Jasper, which I suppose isn't that far from Calhoun via Hwy 53. I'm a member of a very small writer's group that meets in Cumming, which is a bit of a drive for me. This is my first time doing nanowrimo.

Hi Ben,
I am in Ellijay. Maybe we can scrounge up a local group.I have never participated in a writers group, mainly because I am a non-fiction writer. However, I do realize I can write like a fiction writer, even though my writing is true...
This is my first time with nanowrimo, too. I learned about it from my son in Portland OR. He is participating as well.
Hope we meet sometime. Cheers and best of luck to you!

Hi everyone. It's nice to see that there are a few of us up here. I'm in Chatsworth... so not far from Ellijay at all. I hope that we can all chat over the next few weeks. :-)

I just signed up from LaFayette, so I may be the closest to you so far.

Hi Caroline. Nice to see someone "local". :-) It's a shame that there aren't more of us from around here.

Hi! I grew up in Northwest Georgia (Ringgold, for the curious) and was there for my first three NaNos before moving to Atlanta for school. Anyway, for those of you near Chattanooga, you might be interested in checking out their thread:

It's great to see more Wrimos in the area now!

I'm in Jasper, too. Just south of the "city."
I'd love a get-together anywhere in our area. This is my first NaNoWriMo, just signed up a few minutes ago. Like so many others, I know I can write, but have been procrastinating for years. I do have a web site and a blog (http://theupsonfamily.com) where I write some. It's time to get real!
Who's with me?
Woo-Hoo!

I am in Ellijay and it looks like the Northwest Georgia area is not well represented. Since we appear to not be a large group, I would be glad to host a gathering at my home. This is my first time with Nanowrimo and I am excited about it!
If anyone is interested, Please contact me at wildspirit1@mindspring.com. (You might get a spam reply but, I still receive your mail) As you all know, sometimes you cant even get on the nanowrimo site. I am free anytime except not on Wednesdays at all or Sunday mornings. Monday night would be good as my husband is usually not here. But, a weekend night is fine too.
Cheers!

Hey, Caroline, I'm from LaFayette, too. Didn't know there were any other writers in town. Email me at spraybkc@alltel.net and maybe we can get together and compare notes.

Hey,
There's four of us in Calhoun participating. We're mostly the Calhoun-Gordon County Writers Guild -- a small group, but not all of us are participating.
