Write-Ins for Downtown Colorado Springs Wrimos!

Just a quick update on times: I won't be off work until 4 on Thursdays, so odds are that write-ins won't get started until 5 at the earliest (to, you know, give me time to get home and whatnot), probably closer to 5:30 or 6 or even 7. If folks show up earlier than that, well, it depends on whether Crosse is down for that or not. No idea how long it will last - last year it was kind of "whenever we felt like stopping."

Also, just like last year, these write-ins will be totally, completely, utterly and otherwise free. We both know what it is to be strapped for cash, and we both know how great write-ins can be for the noveling and the motivation and suchlike. If you are so inclined, we are happy to accept donations of food, drinks, and words, but we require nothing but your presence. We always have water, juice and hot tea in the house, we usually have hot cocoa and hot cider, and sometimes we even have sugary or salty, delicious snack-like things, all of which will be available for wrimo consumption.

Again, PM Crosse or me with questions, and we'll see you in November!

Hey! I was just wondering what general area y'all are in downtown.

Ash and I already get together on thursdays downtown, usually at Pikes Perk (there is another forum post saying that we'll be there on Thursdays), but maybe if your in the same area we could come there instead??

One block west of Union on Yampa. It's about five blocks north of Memorial Hosptial's Central campus. If you would Like I can nanomail you directions from Pikes Perk to the house?

EDIT::: UPDATE::::

If you're allergic to cats, be warned, I have one now! So...come armed with allergy meds and/or HazMat suit if needed!!!

Hey everyone!

Name's Marina. I'm in the Downtown area and would love to attend. If anyone is meeting already, I'd love to join. I live on the other side of I-25 on Mesa Rd. Where are current writing groups being held?

Marina, we haven't started up our write-ins at my place yet. That'll be November 5th. Let me know if you're still interested and I'll nano-mail you the address and directions! :)

Cool. I'm in.

P.S. I've never done a write-in. what exactly happens?

I rent a house at Monument and Foote, just a few blocks away. I'd be down to do a write-in and I'd be more than willing to bring snacks of some sort.

Beautiful! Looking forward to seeing you there, blip!!!

Glad to hear that you're planning on coming. :) Basically, the write-ins at our place are pretty much time to sit and write, as well as bounce ideas off of the other Wrimos present, eat snacks and drink delicious beverages of a warm and soothing nature. A good time to be had by all.

And I was all set to atttend until I heard about the cats. :) Thanks, though.

i LOVE cats, and i miss mine :( so i might just hang around your place more than is necessary, ha.

I'm definitely in for at least one write-in. It depends on what Thursday I'll be able to get off work. Could you nm me directions from Garden of the Gods?

thanks!

Wow, you guys live pretty close to me! I'm totally down for that, if you still have room for writers! I may even test out home made pumpkin bread on the group - if no one has any objections, of course, hehe.

I may actually enjoy something like this. If I can figure out where you are talking about, I'm there.

Yummy! I was going to offer to bring cookies, but if there's pumpkin bread to be had ...

Pumpkin bread to be had at today's write n! :D Hope to see some people here!
