Since Nano starts on Sunday, I thought a midnight write in would be fun!

I scoped out the IHOP on Buck Owens/99 and they have a nice back area we can use. There's even an outlet to plug into (I'll provide an extension cord and power strip) if you're bringing your laptop.

We can gather about 11 pm, so if you need food or caffeine to keep you awake, you can order and eat/drink before midnight. At midnight we'll start writing and continue as long as you want: they are open all night.

Who's in?

I could be in, provided meeting people on Friday doesn't result in a serious case of loathe at first sight building up to the burning of my effigy, scattering of the ashes and salting of the Earth.

On the bright side, that would be the most passionate first reaction anyone's ever had to be, and one hell of a story.

I'll probably pop in...barring the unforeseen. And barring that intense and sudden urge to burn anyone in effigy. ;-)

I think this is a good idea.

OK, for those of you willing and able we will be meeting at IHOP on Buck Owens/99 for the Midnight write in. 11pm on All Hallows' Eve so we can start writing at 12:01 on November 1st.

Be there or be square. :)

Yes, these are two separate events.

Friday - Rusty's
Saturday night/Sunday morning - IHOP

Hope you can at least make one!

I won't be able to make the Rusty's meeting, the Condors are playing friday night, but I might try to make IHOP.

I won't be able to make the Rusty's meeting, cause I work till 9:30, but I may be able to make IHOP, depending on work, school, etc. I might also drag along the fiance. I'm trying to get him to do NaNo as well, even if he only gets a few thousand words. I think that if I bug him enough he'll come around :D

So expect us there, perhaps : ]

Sorry I missed the Midnight Write it.
some stuff came up, and that means I wont be able to participate in NaNo this year.

Hopefully I can try again another year.

Sorry to hear this isn't your year.

Still, good luck to you. NaNo or not, keep writing.
