Hey, I live in North Portland (Kenton neighborhood, off of Interstate ave), but I haven't seen any posts about this side of the city. Any fellow North Portlanders out there? Maybe we can get together and write in one of the coffeeshops or whatever in THIS area! Give me a call if you feel like it (my Internet is broken and I can only access it when I'm visiting friends) 503 753 0052

Peace
Eireann

Hey, there,
I am in Kenton too! Maybe we could meet at Posies occasionally? Or some other good Kenton place? Tomorrow I'm meeting with some other NanoWrimos at Cellar Door Coffee (2001 SE 11th Ave.) from 12:00 to 5:00-ish at . Andrea (salty_dog) is the owner and has graciously invited us to congregate in her shop!
I'm adding you to my buddy list!
Good luck!
Gloria

Hi,
I'm in Kenton too! Just moved here from Killingworth neighborhood. I'm going to a kick off thing in SE today but I'll call ya and maybe we'll write. There's a little place on Denver (Posies?) maybe that'd be good.

Write On!

I'm down the street from Posies. I'd be happy to meet there for write-ins. I'm free on weekday evenings or most anytime during the week. I'll bring my Nugget, my trusty plot bunny along.
Let me know when you'd like to meet over there!

Is PCC Cascade close enough? There are a couple of us trying to get a write-in going on Tuesday afternoon.

Thea,
Just click on someone's user name to go to their nano-space. Beneath their picture is an option that says "Add as Buddy". Click that and then you'll have to click again to confirm that you're adding them as a buddy. I've added you as my buddy.

Everyone,
I can't do afternoons. Good luck to you all, though.
Let me know when you want to do Posies!

I'm in NE, close to North. Could do weekday evening write-ins or maybe Sunday afternoons.

I think Posies is open until 9 on week nights. Anyone know of a good writing place that is open a little later?

If you go to St. Johns I think Anna Bananas is open till 11:00. Friendly place, plenty of couches and plug ins for lap tops. I will be going there tomorrow (tues).

I could do Tuesday early afternoons at Cascade (except not this Tuesday because I'll be elsewhere.) I have to pick my kids up from school very near there at 3:15, so an hour or two before that would be great.

St. Johns is a good location for me. Not Tuesdays, but other days. Anna Bananas is fine. Maybe I'll just pop in there and see if there's any NaNo action. We oughta wear red carnations or something.

Carry your bunny. A bunny by your keyboard means you're Nano-ing.
Post on here when you're meeting. We can be a loose and informal group :)
I'm going to Posies for a couple hours Sat afternoon, if anyone wants to join.

St Johns! I'm all for the idea on this thread of wearing red carnations at Anna Bananas. I'll follow this thread to see when anyone's heading out; otherwise maybe I'll give a holler when I do.

Good times in St. Johns!
