Please let us know in this thread who is coming and to which (or both! we hope both!), so we can start a headcount.

Thanks! :)

P.S. There might be AWESOME GOODIES you will only get if you're at the Kickoff or the First Writein. I'm just saying.

I'll be there for the Sunday Write-In. The kickoff party is probably not going to happen for me.

I am absolutely planning on coming to both. (Also, sadly, I wished I could have made the novel planning meeting yesterday, but I was somewhere in the middle of nowhere freeway coming back from Alabama at the time...)

Yay NaNo!

I'm going to try to make it to both of them but it depends on what's going on with the whole job search/interviewing/etc.

Definitely the first write-in for me.
I can come to the kickoff if small children are acceptable.

I will definitely be at the Kick Off party, and I will be at the first write in too, but I'll be a little late since I have church that morning.

Well... I guess I'm coming, but you know, I might have something more important to do. Um. You know.

FINE, YES, I WILL BE THERE TOO. FOR BOTH OF THEM.

Where's my awesome goodie bag?! ;)

P.S. Cylithria, you are a dork!

I will TRY be at the Sunday, November 1 event. No promises... it IS the day after Halloween, which is my favorite holiday.

If I do make it, it will just be me.

I'll be at both, and will likely have my 12-year-old son with me. Trying to convince him to write this year :)

Anarose - at the first write in I SHOULD have my 12 year old nephew and my 11 and a half year old niece who have been talking about doing NaNo since January. LOL. So your son will have good company.

And speaking of head count - I'll definitely be plus one with a possibilty of 3 more for the Young Writers program for the first write in. They wanted to do it with me last year but I couldn't get over there to write wth them due to the health issues I had.

I'm definitely planning on going to both. I'm just not sure yet if I'M driving or not.

And, I'll have to try and grab her tail and yank to get her attention to confirm, but I'm fairly sure Anubis is going as well. We've been chattering about it since I got all excited about the schedule and I know we both wanted to try and make every single event. If she goes, it's a definite that Pred (her 'mate) will be with us. They're attached at the hips and lips, those two.

I can't make either meeting, natch. I'm just posting to see if it's possible to have some of those goodies shipped down. My morale's probably gonna need all the goodies it can get this year.

My boys are now signed up for the YWP. (I'm still working on word count goals.) They'll probably come with me to the Kickoff, but they'll probably miss the First Day Writein.

Brendan - age 11
Jacob - age 11

BTW, they were both very excited to learn there are other kids participating. It was the extra little nudge they needed. :)

Unless I buy/borrow a laptop?

My son will definitely be there. I actually managed to get him excited about writing, something that is no small task! He's gone all out planning his novel LOL

I can't make the Oct 30 event, but hope to make it to the Nov 1 Write-in. I might have a couple of my kids with me that day, depending on how the rides work out.

Okay it's looking like I should be at the kick-off party, and possibly with my husband along. Hoping to make the first write-in too.
