The Louisville NaNoWriMo Kick-Off Party will be on Sunday, October 26th from 2 to 4:30pm. Please join us at the Bon Air library branch meeting room at 2816 Del Rio Place, Louisville, Kentucky 40220.
Get more information on NaNoWriMo and get to know your fellow Wrimos... We'll have NaNoWriMo swag and fun for all! Please bring yourself, plenty of enthusiasm, and if you can, an appetizer/snack or dessert to share. We’ll provide the beverages.
Please RSVP to this thread, or send NaNomail to myself (Supashoppa) or Sekitou.
We look forward to seeing our old friends and welcoming the new!

Library directions (from their website. Their phone number is 574-1795 in case you need it!):
There are three general approaches to the Bon Air Branch, which is located at 2816 Del Rio Place. The three approaches are from: Bardstown Road at Goldsmith, Hikes Lane to Goldsmith Lane, and Taylorsville Road
If coming off Watterson Expressway - take the Bardstown Road south exit and get into the left lane quickly. Take the first left at the Quality Inn (formerly Holiday Inn) onto Goldsmith Lane. Follow Goldsmith approximately one mile until the street name changes to Del Rio Place. The Library is located one block on the left after this name change. (There are three blue and white international Library signs on the street pointing the way.)
Turning onto Goldsmith from Hikes lane - go north towards the Watterson Expressway, passing Seneca High School until you come to a stop sign (seven blocks). Turn right at the sign, onto Del Rio Place. The library is one block east on the left.
Turn onto Furman just across the east access ramp to the Watterson on Taylorsville Road. Go just one short block to Kings Highway and turn right. Go through two stop signs. Kings Highway ends and Radiance Road begins. Make the first right turn onto Herb Lane from Radiance Road. Follow Herb until it dead ends at Commander Drive and turn left. At the next corner you will find Del Rio Place; turn right. The library is located one short block down on the right.

Jude stopped and looked at Colin. “Well, of course you’ll agree. I’m Jude Atlanta after all. And I’m a star.”

We so wanted to be there. My daughter and I were both still sick. I thought for sure we would be better by today..but it seems we only got worse.
:-(
So how was the party??

Hey Louisvillian Wriomos -- it's me, Ellen, the girl at the kick-off party who was lame and left half an hour early. Did I miss anything? It was great to meet all of you! I'm going to start adding people as buddies now...

The party was... interesting. Fun too. But according to the MLs there didn't seem to be nearly as many people as who RSVPed. But it was great to meet new faces. You didn't miss much Ellen. Most people started to pack up about 15 minutes after you did. See you at the write ins or the Thank Gawd It's Over party.
HEY! We have an "edit" button now! Woo hoo!

Hey thanks to everyone who came! I had fun and i hope that you did too!
I'm sorry that some of you folks were feeling sickly and couldn't make it... but best to rest up for the month of writing, I say!
Take care and I hope to see you all soon!
