Here is a shout out to all us "desert dwellers" from the High Desert area.

I'm residing in Barstow, and this will be my fourth year participating in NaNo.

Yay! Another person from the high desert!

Barstow? That's cool. I'm about an hour south of you in Apple Valley. XD

This is my first year doing NaNo, so I'm excited :D

Haha, I'm in Hesperia. But I know where Barstow is, and I love the drive-in theatre down there!

Hey, hey, hey! How's it going down in the desert? *grins* Yes, down in the desert. I'm in ze mountains above you, looking out from my balcony Evil Citadel! Mwahahaha! ...Okay, just kidding really (about the Evil part, not the mountains), but anyway, I'm actually really close to this area and I work down in the desert, so I'd love to come to some stuff if the times work out! It would be simply lovely to not have to drive down the hill. :)

Hey-o,

Going into my second year with NaNo and looking forward to hooking up with old friends (Thorn, are you ready?!) and making new ones. Count me in the ranks of the Barstow dwellers. We desert folk need to get together this year for a writing party.

Hokay, krazikrys, where is it? Can't find it listed. And there's going to be a party? When? Where?

Get together is doable, and even dwellers in Not-So-Evil Mountain Citadels are welcome. In which part of the desert are you working? The Mojave's a big place and "in the desert" covers a whole lotta ground. I'm in Barstow, with Jacqueline and krazykris (altho I've yet to meet them).

I'm working over in Victimville, which is also where I attend school. I don't mind driving a bit, though. When you live in the Not-So-Evil Mountain Citadel, you generally get used to driving a while to get anywhere.

The Victorville group got expanded to the "San Bernardino" group -- it's for the whole counties, as previously there was just Inland Empire -- and the Riverside group.

There are write-ins in Apple Valley on Thursday evenings, in Hesperia on Tuesday eveningss, and I'm sure you could add some Barstow write-ins to the mix. Join us and let us know

Don't know where the TGIO party will be yet, but c'mon over to the SB group and stay tuned. We're looking at having something in Victor Valley and also down the hill.
