Well, we're about to start another gruelling month of emotional ups and downs, otherwise affectionately known as NaNoWriMo. So how about a Meet & Greet; Sunday, October 26th, 7 pm, Java Monkey, Decatur.

Bring your questions, quandries, plot ideas and suggestions and I'll bring the swag.

Look forward to seeing all of you.

Could you give an address to that place? I know where Decatur is, but Decatur isn't exactly small.

Oh wow. o_o I'm going to start college in that area soon. I should be able to find it no problem. Heck, I could take the Marta Train.

EDIT: Are you going to have like, a sign or something? XD

Not sure what Shawn will do but a sign is a good idea(like the No Plot? No Problem! book). I'm probably going to take the train too. I know my schedule will be crazy that day though. I'll be coming back from NC that same afternoon so hopefully I'll get back in time to go to it.

Given that I'm an ardent MARTA supporter, you can look for me on the train.

Jeannez,

It was a yahoo group. The reason it was created in the first place was because the forums were having serious issues last year. Since the forums are doing much better this year, the admins for the group felt it didn't need to be re-activated. A good portion of the people that were in the group are in this forum.

However, the lovely Celestialwolf did reactivate the group's chatroom for us! :D

I'm there right now if you would like to chat! (I'm in there a lot actually.)

Hey Everyone,

Normally I attend the Sunday morning write-ins at Borders on Cobb but unfortunately I won't be able to make it there this year. My wife is going to school on the weekends and thus I have to look after my son while she's there. A write-in with a child is not the best thing, you know? So... that being said I've decided to do the following:

Monday's 6pm-8pm (or later if need be)
10/20/2008 - 12/1/2008
@ SIP - Lindbergh Center (Piedmont Ave and Lindbergh), across from Lindbergh MARTA station

Schedule wise (tentatively)...

10/20 - Prep/Planning
10/27 - Prep/Planning
11/3 - Write-in
11/10 - Write-in
11/17 - Write-in
11/24 - Write-in
12/1 - TGIO Mini-Party

I figured I'd post it so if anyone wanted to join me they can. If not, that's cool too. Shawn, I'd appreciate it if you could add it to the calendar.

Thanks for posting, these Cel! See you there!

Without a car, I'm far more likely to appear at the SIP write-ins than I am the Cobb ones. (Though toward the end of November, when words will mean more than coherence, I'm just as likely be found taking in some high-gravity liquid inspiration in the East Point Corner Tavern...)

Hey everybody! Glad to be back.

This year should be even more difficult than last years - aside from having no ideas, I have to travel a lot for work! I forsee airport writing in my future.

Hey, I'm going to try to get over to SIP tomorrow night. Look for a bald white guy.

Awesome. I'll bring my No Plot No Problem book so it's easy to identify me. I look forward to seeing everyone!

I've got monster errands to run tonight (10/20) for my daughter's birthday tomorrow, but I'll definitely be at the 10/27 get-together!

I'm planning to show up at Lindbergh Center today (10/20). I'll be wearing a black floppy bunny ears hat. :)

Well since you're addicted to it, I'm sure you'll be back in the years to come like most us will be. Glad to hear you're enjoying it.
