This is our second write-in and hope to see everyone there! I will get the back room reserved for us and will bring a couple of power strips.

I should be able to make it, though I might be late. Going to try and rush through work and leave as soon as possible. What day is this?

Is this write in for tonight? I'll go as long as I can hog an elec outlet. My laptop battery is practically nonfunctional at this point.

I didn't make it to last night's write in, but I'd like to meet some of you fellow local Wrimos. I'll be the one in the "BITE ME" tee shirt. You can't miss it.

I have to get caught up this weekend so, aside from tomorrow's library book sale, writing is all I have planned.

What.....you're not a mind reader....LOL

My apologizes......this will be scheduled for next Thursday (the 12th) as well. I'm looking to seeing if we can schedule a 3rd write-in over a weekend (it might be easier for some people with hectic schedules).

:-)

Eh, I lacked that power. Instead, all I can do is bend spoons...not very useful.

I should be able to make it! And a 3rd write-in sounds WONDERFUL in case I can't, because my weekends are ALWAYS open (my little life revolves around art and writing, the writing winning out this month).

I may miss this one... My mom and I are having some "girl time" that night. Makeovers and dinner. ^_^

There is a 20% chance that I will swing by. So you MIGHT see me.

Keep setting them up, though! LOVED the one last night! Brava!

Write on.

Oh, I'll definitely be there, though I won't arrive until around 8:30 PM!

YAY for write-ins!

Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under

I can probably go as long as no one minds that I will be headed there straight from the gym. I can try to sequester myself from the group if necessary...

Bummer for me. Thursday night @ 7:30 is the date and time I have to take the kiddos to gymnastics. I'll keep looking for that weekend write-in you mentioned.

I won't be able to make this one either unfortunately. My reason isn't necessarily great, but it is something I want to do. Next Thursday, one of the movie theaters is showing an encore presentation of a movie called Race Across the Sky. They showed it a few weeks ago and it was supposed to be a 1-night, 1-showing thing, but they got enough requests for a second screening that they are going to show it a second time this Thursday. Even though I saw it the first time, I want to go see it again.

The movie itself is great (it is actually a documentary) and I think most people would enjoy it, but you would probably have to be a cyclist to be willing to spend the $12.50 the tickets cost... and probably definately have to be a cyclist to be willing to do it twice. :)

Sadly, I'll be out of town that weekend! But I'll be wishing you all flying fingers and soaring imaginations from Chicago!
Have fun y'all. ;D

Get with child a mandrake root,
Tell me where all past years are,
Or who cleft the devil's foot,
Teach me to hear mermaids singing,
Or to keep off envy's stinging,
And find, what wind, serves to advance an honest mind."

Thursdays are a no-go for me. I'm busy all night.

Monday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are best for me. (I am aware that this means I have no life. Who cares?)

I will certainly be there, perhaps a little bit late, but there nonetheless! The first write-in rocked! Can't wait!

Don't forget tonight at 7:30. If anyone can come a littler earlier to help save seats it would be great. I am going to try to make it, but I'm working on our Willy Wonka project at work and have quite a bit to get done. I should be able to be there for a bit (just might not be on time)

I'll try to show up early. It would probably be good. I've got some catching up to do on my word count. I'm 3500 behind right now.

I'm so behind, and I was counting on this write in to help me start to catch up, but I'm still at work. I've been here since early this morning with no end in sight.

Hope you guys get lots of writing done. If I survive today, I will see you guys on the next write in...

I am so disappointed that I couldn't make it out last night. I vow that I will attend at least one write-in before this thing is over. My word count needs it severely, since I absolutely CAN'T fail. I know it's my first year, but you guys are all very encouraging and I know I can do it.

Last night was good. There was some strange scenery and a fair amount of laughing from our table, but I still managed to bust out 2000 words in the 3 hours I was there.
