There were only two of us at Atlanta Bread Company tonight. Keyboardwarrior and I are the real true NaNo-ers. Together we added, well, lots and lots of words to the Alabama North word count and we're sitting here hoping all of you are at home doing the same.
Hope to see lots of you next week.

All right Bev. Some of us have to work Tuesday nights, as you well know. But I'm home now and ready to slave away over a hot keyboard for a little while longer tonight. I keep telling myself I'm a fifth of the way through this thing and I'm still accumulating words, if not sense and coherence.

Sorry. I spent the afternoon catching up on word count and the evening trying to head off the migraine that followed.
I probably won't make it to any write-ins due to general life chaos, but I wish you all luck with them!

Oh, you have migraines too? Ack. That's the reason I wasn't there. I came in to work at lunchtime, had everything with me, but by 530 just wanted to get back to my nice quiet, dark flat and soft, cool pillows. =(
I'll definitely see you all next Tuesday though! And maybe Saturday if I can manage it.
Hope your head is better KristenS ^_^

sadly I had 3 papers that were due Wednesday and Thursday and I didn't have any of them even started, so my evening was dedicated to school. I wanted to go! Really I did!! ;.;

I managed to go! Then my mom made me leave at 7:30 because she claimed there was no-one there. I saw two possible canidates for Nanoer's excluding the lady working in the bakery area (my friend said she was probably a NaNo-er )
Since my mom can't cook I'm most likely going to be able to come every week just so my mom can feed her kids. (sad isn't it?)

Emmy-Lou and all,
So sorry that we didn't make the Tuesday write-in, plus this week we'll be gone for a client meeting out-of-town. Please write on without us. As you can see by my stats, I would be much better off with you than on this constant travel.
Whoever does go, please make a hand-written sign to attact other writers and to convince Emmy-Lou's Mom we're real!
----------Thanks,
Amy
