I might be able to pop in, but my parents will probably expect me to stay and home and be reverent for Remembrance Day or something. :P I'll try my damnedest to come (I need a write-in like this to really hurl myself through the book a bit), but I can't commit for sure, so I probably won't sign up for the Word War right away. :(

I'll probably be able to come, but I don't want to promise anything yet. School work might eat me between now and Sunday. >.>

If I can I will! And I'll be with the pen and paper group if I do, my laptop's on the fritz.

I'd love to make it! You can count me in. I definitely need some time to get caught up on my word count!

I might be coming! I missed the last one (found out about it 15 minutes before it started, haha) so I'd love to come this time. :D I so need to get caught up, anyway.

Woo!

doubt I can come. drama rehersal, and it'd probably be a bad idea if the director didn't show up...

hopefully I'll make the next one. and be caught up by then.

Unfortunately Chapters is the only retail store on the planet open on Remembrance Day and yes, I got suckered into working. I do owe Dana some cash, so can I leave that to you to deliver, Jha? Will you be around school/the smuds office tomorrow? :)

I'm in the Writing Center 10 - 2, and then in the SMUDS office (or pottering around school) until 4pm, and then class until 5.15 after which I'll be in the office again napping until 6... and from 6pm - 9pm I'll be in the theatre moving shit around.

I live in my office.

Jack and I will be there! We had a blast at the last one. I can't promise that I'll be in the word war this time. My fingers were numb for ages! *laughs*

Hi Everyone,

I am absolutely new here.
I have been trying to follow along with you guys, but I am lost.
I gather you all know each other and are meeting on Sunday - but what is a "word war"? .

About me - I live in Mount Uniacke NS and I joined NaNo after I heard about it from a work colleague. I have not gotten too far with my actual novel (it is all over the place), but what it has done, has motivated me to get my non-fictional work well under-way. This is a huge accomplishment, as I have been sitting on this work for years now.

I'll be there. Word count is so paltry now I haven't even bothered posting it and need to do some serious catch up.

Welcome Jackie!!

A word war is when someone sets a timer for a set amount of time, anywhere from 5 minutes to an hour, and everyone frantically rushes to get the most amount of words in.

Hey all! Heather (French Fry) and I will be there as soon as we can after we get off the pool deck! Which means... probably around three-thirty, maybe closer to four.

... and now I really have to go write! I'm so far behind!!!!!!!!!

EDIT--> Oh yeah, and my friend Matt is home from Mt. A this weekend, and may or may not show up!

Hi, I'm also new and plan to come out this afternoon. I don't know if I'll be up for any word wars though, with pen and paper. We'll have to see.
