Hi LocoFoCo Wrimos,
We know this is a little late in the season but a place has finally been determined for the official midnight halloween/kick-off party. Crash tried really hard to get us a coffee house for the party but they were horrible about returning phone calls. Oh well its their lost business.
Therefore we will be having the traditional Halloween/Kick-off party at Scimoria (2701 Sutton Ct., Fort Collins, CO 80526) a fellow wrimo's house. It will start at 9pm and go till we drop.
This is a potluck so bring something to share, post what you plan to bring so that we get a variety of foods. Also provide an index card with the ingredients so people with allergies can eat safely. And I will make one last request if you can bring a bag of halloween candy they will be collected so there is always a pot of candy for energy at write-ins.
Please help spread the word about the kick-off party to help us compensate for the late notice. Also if you are new to NaNo don't be shy about coming you will be welcomed. If you want send me a private nanomail for more information. Parents are welcome to come with their writer's as we understand you will want to meet the group your teenager will be writing with.
It is a halloween party so we look forward to seeing the wonderful costumes.

Yay! I was hoping this was going to happen. :D
I'll come to the party, though I may be coming late. Some of my friends wanted to go to a few "local" haunted houses and I promised I'd tag along before this was announced. I'll definitely be there by 11 at the latest.
Not sure quite yet what I'll bring, but I'll try to bring either a desert or a drink. I noticed no one put down drinks yet, so I might just pick up a case of coke for everyone to share.

Knowing the particular night, I may be indisposed. I want to get a head start though, so there is a conflict here. Hmm.

They re-opened I-70 today, so I will be there and not stuck in Kansas! :-)
I am not sure what I will bring. It will depend on how quickly I recover from my travels.
----------Cheers!

I will probably come for a little bit at the beginning (can't stay long because I'll be dragging along my unfortunate husband, who really doesn't want to stick around to watch us write!). I'll be bringing whatever is left over from the carnival we're volunteering at earlier that evening. :-)

Hey all! I'm planning on coming. If it'll work, I could bring coffee and/or an extra coffee maker. I know I'm probably going to need it!
Also something salty/savory like chex mix or rice crackers or something like that to balance out all the sweets we're having tonight...

Is anyone heading up from Loveland or Greeley? A guy from east Loveland might join us, if he can hitch a ride with someone.

Great start, everyone! I reached my night's goal of 1,000 words, and then decided to be that little bit of extra crazy and did up a NaNo-themed Chocolate Shoes. http://www.chocolateshoes.net/archive/0051.shtml
Good luck and happy writing!

Great party!
Did anybody find a purple Plumix pen there, by any chance? I can't find it anywhere today, and the last I remember using it was last night.
