Hey all,

I haven't been able to make the weekday write-ins, 'cause I've got my munchkins with me all the time. My husband is also working crazy hours this month to reach a deadline at work, so I've been unable to make any night-time ones, too (the state frowns on duct-taping children into their beds at night and leaving them by themselves... who knew?).

So I'm hoping to host a write-in tomorrow. I'm thinking 11 a.m., but I'm no good with places. Anyone want to co-host with a venue?

I've got to double my word count to catch up, so I'm hoping to get a nice long writing session in - and I've got leave by 4 p.m.

Help me out, Wrimos!

Kristen

Hey Kristen,

I'm doing a regular Sunday write-in at Martha and Bros on California at Divisadero. I'm there with another coffee group from about 11 am anyway, but will start the write-in at 1 pm lasting at least until 4 pm. Would love to see you! Your word count's about where mine is right now.

OK, SF Wrimos!

I talked to WithAnticipation, and we'll do a write-in on Sunday at Martha & Bros. Coffee at California and Divisadero.

I'll be there at 11 to kick off the write-in, and hopefully will make it til 4, when I've got to leave. If anyone want to play host from 4 on, or whenever WithAnticipation checks out, speak up!

I have brown hair, a nose ring, and have black nail polish, but I'll put a sticky note on my laptop. I won't tell you what I'm wearing - my novel's not like *that.* Geez. ; )

My appearance there is likely, but tentative. I'm more of an afternoon person, so I'll pro'lly be there around 1ish.

I could join you 12:30 or 1ish by the latest. What neighborhood are you in?

Hi all,

I just sat down at Martha and Bros - at a table with NO OUTLET. Brilliant. I've got a coffee and am wearing a blue striped, V-neck sweater and have sunglasses on my head. There's a piece of paper shoved in the front of my protective laptop case that says "NaNoWrimo-Ers?"

I'll move tables when I run out of juice.

We're going strong over here at the write-in at Martha & Bros.

Fingers are clicking away (and scribbling somewhat furiously), so come join us! There's still a couple of hours left to the write-in - I plan to be here 'til 4. I've managed to log almost 2,500 words thus far! Maybe our industriousness will inspire you.

obviously you're not working industriously enough if you're checking the forums! Not like me, I mean, um, i'll just be over there writing.
