Hey guys,

Just wanted to see if there was an interest for this... I work in the Loop, right across from the Art Institute, and there's an Au Bon Pain in the lobby of my building that's open until 9 PM every week night and has free wireless. I was planning to hang out there after work once a week or so, to get some writing done without the distraction of being at home.

So, my question, would anyone be interested in hanging out for a few hours after work? I'm sure most people would rather go home, eat dinner, etc, but would anyone be interested in a write-in, maybe on a Wednesday or Thursday evening, for a few hours?

I can't make it to the Monday ones for most of the month, so I'd love weekly meetups on Wednesdays or Thursdays :D

Since you're right down the street from me work-wise, I'm game. Just post the nights and I'll be there!

A write-in would be awesome! I live in the suburbs but I spend a lot of my time in the loop at my Grandmother's home.

I go to school at the School of the Art Institute, so this would be perfect for me! :) Just let me know when you're planning on being there, and I'll see if I can make it (if i don't have class or projects to do). I think Wednesdays and Thursday evenings are free for me.
