Sorry those not 21...
the drunken write in crew invites all those 21 and older to come to the final write-in (9pm) tonight, Friday, at the Old Peculiar. We had a fantastic group this year, and nearly all of us are finished! We have a couple scrambling... keep going guys!
If you want to write, you might want to bring headphones, it can be a bit loud, and I expect Friday will be louder.
Come celebrate with us!
Ballard Drunken Write-In Crew
(me, injurylad, annachronism, noneko, tjlogan, gemms, runningactor, fyca, dunlin, and a few others who peeked in from time to time and we hope you will return to celebrate!)
WOOT! We did it!
If you can, try to add a few more words... every bit helps in the region war!

A big THANKS should go out to fyca for organizing the drunken write-ins and peanutga11er1 for sustaining them and providing power to all those who needed a plug-in. You ladies are awesome and I shall never underestimate a knitter again.
Thanks to a final all-nighter push I finished...not the book but my 50K. Not going to add any tonight, just drink and moral support for those trying to cross the line. Come join in one and all.

I am sooo sorry I only made it to one write in at the Wayward.
I did make the 50,000 for Seattle, but RL kicked me in the teeth.
Have great fun all!

I am going to be late-ish, due to the fact that I'm taking the bus from Capital Hill, and have recently discovered that... well, it'll be more annoying than I'd hoped.
But... I plan to be there.

I have about 800 words to go, and I'll stop by for a celebratory drink *after* I'm done.
I've never cut it this close before

Sooooo... I got lost.
The bus confused me (not for the first time, I'm sorry to say) and it was freezing and, long story short, I won't be there. It's lame, but have fun anyway!

Gemms, we missed you!
Thanks to all who came to the ballard write ins, and had fun with us at the drunken one. It was a total blast and I finished early only because you guys all cheered me on. Or threatened to overtake me. One of those ;-)
We had the best group with which I've ever been privileged to write. Hope we keep it going throughout the year. I'm proud of all of us and grateful to call you guys friends. :-)
