The traditional Detroit write-in!

Where:
     Z's Villa      [MAP]
     42 Piquette St
     Detroit, MI 48202

When: Thursdays, 7pm-9pm, beginning November 5th.

Details: There is an attended parking lot, and it's free! It's easily accessable from major freeways, or you can coast down Woodward. From I-94, use Woodward Ave/M-1 exit. From I-75, exit at Grand Blvd or Warren Ave, then west to Woodward Ave.

Z's is a great little bar/grill. When you come in, climb the stairs to the second floor, and that's where you'll find us!

Age Limit: All Ages

Hope to see everyone there! Be sure to check the google calendar on the Detroit forums main page for all events and write-ins as they are finalized.

If you're interested in planning a write-in, please follow the instructions as detailed here.

I'm bummed... I just realized that I have a babysitting job this Thursday night. BUT, I will endeavor to attend future Z's write ins.

I was hoping to come, but I don't think I'll be able to make it... the idea of straying off campus so late at night makes me nervous. =/

Off-campus? If you're talking about Wayne State, that's where I live, too. No need to be nervous! I've gone every Thursday during NaNo for three years now, and nothing has ever happened. If you're worried about getting there/back, you can hop in my car if you want.

Yeah, I do mean Wayne. It's just that those crime watch emails make me so nervous... but it is right off of campus, isn't it? If it's really close, maybe I will come.

You'll be with a whole bunch of people, in a very popular spot. Please don't let random fear keep you away from a good time. I live right smack downtown and have never had a problem in three years. *knocks on wood*

I know it's early but guess what guys?! I'm already here! I'm up on the second floor with my laptop, already writing. So if you wanna show up early I will be here willing and waiting! I'll also have a rum and coke sitting by me.

Kara- Just go up the stairs to the second floor and look for a dell laptop with stickers on it.

And I need to acknowledge that the co-ML from the Tri-Cities region Megan Allen is awesome, because she's willing to do favors for me. :D ~courtesy of Megan Allen.

I'm planning on coming this time, folks. Woodward and Piquette, eh? I'll only be there an hour, though. (There's an open-mic event later, closer to campus. I'm going to try and read an excerpt at it.)
