Next Wednesday, the 14th (two days after the official write-in in Albany), I will be showing up at OSU's Valley Library to twiddle at my novel, hoping with all my heart that other people show up to join me.
My plan is to show up at 6 pm and hang out with my laptop in the second-floor lounge that looks down over the lobby--partly because it's easy to find, and partly because it seems to have exactly the right amount of white noise.
Would anyone like to join me? Students and non-students alike are welcome! I'll make a little sign and wear my T-shirt so that we can find each other. :)

How long are you planning on staying? I work from 6:30 to 8:30, but after that am free.

No plans yet. Probably later than 8:30, especially if that's better for people.

I'll be there tomorrow night! I might even show up earlier, since I don't think I'm going to have anything going on other than classes that end at 4. But I will be there!

Whee, people! :D I know at least one non-NaNoer is going to join us for the typity-typing as well, so this should be pretty awesome.
I'll be the almost-redhead in the pink jacket and NaNoShirt, and thanks to the Albany meet I now have a poster to put somewhere in the vicinity. Can't wait to write with you all!

Well, I won't be there until sometime after 6:30, since I apparently have a floor meeting at 6 tonight. But I'll hopefully be able to be there no later than 6:45. I don't think the meeting should to go too long. But I will be there!!!

Just in case anyone's trying to find the group, I'm here (only one so far), on floor 3 (which is the one above the ground floor), sitting at a table in between the gap that looks down on the lobby and the windows of the quad-side of the library. I'm too shy to roll out the poster until at least one other person is here, so you'll have to look for my shirt. :P

And I am also here, writing away, and trying to convince my friend to come join us. I'm wearing an orange OSU sweatshirt, and a backwards baseball nat'l champs hat, sitting across from Masamage.
We're here wait for you all to show!!

Thanks to both the lovely ladies who came. :D I didn't get an exact word count, but I do know that I wrote 2000, and that each of the others wrote several thousand as well. We may even have beaten the number from Monday's write-in!
Go us! :D Good job, everyone. I'd love to do it again next week. (Albany would also be fun.)

If you're going to be there on Weds, I'd love to join you- again, it'll be at about 8:30 due to work.

I can't make Wednesday, 'cause I'll be out of town for Thanksgiving. Monday might be good, though. Wait, no, that's my wedding anniversary. o__O Tuesday I have a rehearsal...
Okay, clearly I should not be the one organizing anything that happens next week. X) If you all (and others) want to get together without me you should definitely do so. Afternoons might work, I guess.
Although if there's an /official/ meet-up we should capitulate to that, 'cause they have candy. :D
