If I somehow manage to get a Saturday or two off....I might have to pop in! That's within a couple miles of home for me.

I'm closer to this one that the Macomb write-in, so I will try to stop by for a bit, pen and paper in hand.

Hullo! Just popping by to say hi. When I was in Troy during the school year, there weren't any write-ins in the area for me to go to. Now I'm in East Lansing for college, so I can't make the ones here. I'm always glad to see Troy people active on the forums, though!

If you have one that Saturday after Thanksgiving, then I should be there! =)
I'll be back home in the area for the holiday and would love the chance to keep up and meet more WriMos.

The write-in was great. Since I have no laptop, I was writing by hand, but so far from that I've inputted almost 2,000 words and still going! Thanks!
