I'm Dotsmom. This is my second year participating in NaNoWriMo; I did win last year and have been revising my novel ever since.
I live in Coushatta, LA, am an instructor at LSUS in Shreveport, where I teach English--mostly composition and literature. I've been teaching there since 2001.
I have a few friends from Shreveport, and we may start our own group, but I thought I'd check in here, since I'm about midway between Natchitoches and Shreveport.
Happy writing to all!

Hey there! I'm in Shreveport! I'd like very much to have a group here and maybe participate in some write-ins as well.

Hi Dotsmom -- let me know if you start a group. I'm posting a few topics down under the "Shreveport/Bossier City Anyone?" thread, trying to get a write-in going for Sundays at the Broadmoor library (not far at all from LSUS). Congrats on finishing last year and best of luck getting it edited and published now! YAY!
Take care! Feel free to "buddy" me on here too if you like. The more the merrier, right?

Hi, Dotsmom, I graduated from LSU-S in 2002 with a Bachelor's in English! :)
I'll probably have difficulty being part of any group because of my strange work schedule (Tuesday - Saturday, 7am - 3:30ishpm, off Sundays and Mondays), but I'd love to try.

Hi Dotsmom, I'm from Saline (well, Readhimer actually), so we're almost neighbors! This is my first year participating in NaNo, so I hope it's a good one!
