Since everyone lives all over town and everyone has different schedules I am trying to get an idea of when people are available for support meetings and what side of town everyone is one so Laura and I can start locating areas for meetings so everyone can be a part of it.
Trust me support during November is badly needed to get us all throiugh it. Not to mention we make great friends during the month that last long after the month is over.
I am not sure of Laura's schedule but mine at the moment is that I usually work days from 6AM till 2:30PM so I can even set up afternoon meetings for anyone who would like them.
I am in the Rainbow and Smoke Ranch area so the Tuesday nights at Barnes and Noble will be a definiate for me.
I do not mind traveling however so that everyone benefits from the meetings and can get to them.
So, what side of town is everyone on?
What time is good for you?
What days are best for you?

I live on the East side, around Sahara and Nellis (but don't hold that against me). I have Saturday, Sunday and Mondays off, but I work graveyard so really the only good times for me are early mornings after 6am or evenings after 7pm. The rest of the time I'm sleeping. :)
Don't worry about trying to work things around my wacky schedule, but I'd prefer evenings on the weekend if it's possible.

How about that? I live past Sloan, closer to the high school really. In Sunrise Gardens. We'll have to work something out.

I have also talked to one of the workers at Cheesecake and Crime, she is going to let us set meetings. Most Thursdays are good for her. Plus she asks for people just to come by and try some cheesecake. They can handle about 8 or 10 people comfy or more less comfy.
Furthermore, there is the coffee shop on Flamingo Rejunate (sorry if I spelled it wrong) and they are great there. I spent many of my days off there writing last year. Oh and their Hot Chocolate is wonderful. They also have a couple of pc's hooked to the internet and some outlets.
I know Leah and I do the Tues, tell me when you want to meet other nights/weekends and I can work most out. I work 8 to 5 m-f (yeah I know a normal schedule) so I am up to most things.

I live in what is essentially North Central, on Commerce and Craig. The Tuesday Night BnN meetings are really good for me as I have classes Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday nights, and Saturdays are Days With the Boyfriend. :3 I'd like to say the daytime or the evenings of the other days would work well for me, but that depend on whether or not my little brothers will start staying after school by then. :/ But I'll definitely be at the Tuesday night ('cept for the 28 since I'll be out of town) get-togethers!

So far, Tabby is about the closest one to me--I'm WAY up here in the far reaches of North Vegas out by the 215 and Losee. So no matter where--it's still a drive for me, but I would love to be able to participate! (--Thursday and Fridays are no good for me!) I was able to get to last year's spot at the Panera at 95 and Lake Mead but sadly, there wound up being three of us by the time November was over! :(
----------So whatever gets worked out, I'll try to make it!

Hey guys, I know both Leah and I are happy everyone wants to meet. The Tues night meets are pretty much set, some of us have been doing them for a couple of years. Also, I want to set something up on Thursdays and maybe on Sat and Sun. I will be honest as of right now only tues are set, but I know I love Cheesecake and Crime and I want to hit that location at least once or twice next month. I will be out of town starting tomorrow for a week, but after that I am stopping by Cheesecake and Crime to see the place and start those meeting rolling. I also am going to be checking email and the boards every day so let me know if you need anything, or have ideas of when and where.

LOVE Cheesecake and Crime, AND it's on my side of town. The owners are pretty cool with this sort of stuff, it seems. They are always trying to sign me up for clubs and such.
Also...really great cheesecake.

Based on what people have posted so far this is what I have been able to come up with.
Tuesday evening (Barnes & Noble at 2191 North Rainbow Boulevard)
Saturday morning (Eastside perhaps? Location undecided) (Maybe Rejuvanate?)
There is also the possibility of a Sunday or Monday evening meeting and I am all for Cheesecake and Crime on a Thursday night because I love cheesecake.
Once my partner in crime. Err I mean once Laura is back in town we will hopefully be able to nail down the specifics such as locations and times.
Not to mention feel free to do spur of the moment meetings. I often will post where I am going to write and invite others to join if they want.
Don't feel locked into set meetings feel free to do spur of the moment, it is a lot of fun.

Hi, all.
Nice to cyber-meet you all. This is my first year. I'm in Henderson at Eastern and St. Rose Parkway. We have a Cheesecake and Crime near me, but I gather you are talking about a different one. I would definitely be open to an east side meeting on Saturday mornings. There is a Borders at Stephanie and Sunset. There is also a more centrally located Borders at the new Town Square. I'm not familiar with Rejuvenate. Where is that?
I look forward to meeting you!

I live a few blocks east of Cheyenne and 215. I'd love to go to the Tuesday night meetings but I have class from 7-10:30 so there's no way. Monday and Tuesdays are the only nights all week I do anything at all. :(
Am I doomed?

Hi Wrimos,
I'm in Henderson, haunting Black Mountain. If by any odd chance it turns out that there is a bunch of us in Henderson, the Saxby's coffee shop off Horizon and the 95 is a large, comfy, sun filled spot to recline and write- and I expect to scribble there with some frequency!
P.S. I'm free almost any afternoon after 2:00.

Hey, I live Buffalo and Lake Mead so I'm like /right/ there, I'm so close I could walk! I'll try to go to the Tuesday meetings, and hopefully drag one of my friends (who is also doing NaNoWriMo) with me.

If I actually show up at a meeting or two, you could take up the mantle of the Ghost Writer in my stead.
Admittedly, I'm mostly missing out on these things because I'm an hour's drive outside Vegas proper.

I trust you're not lumping the theorized Lake Mead/Rainbow into 'east side', right?
And at least you're not an hour outside the city and /then/ however much farther away from the meeting place.

Hi all :)
This is my first time doing NanoWrimo and I'm so excited. I live down the street from Town Square. I just googled Cheesecake and Crime and it sounds really cool, looks like I'm not too far form the one on Eastern, would love to have a meeting there.
I want to try to attend the Tuesday meetings at Barnes and Noble (are they really packed?) I can also do meetings Saturday mornings or Sunday evenings and maybe even Mondays.
Will a final list of all the different meetings and times be posted or emailed?
Hope to meet you all soon.

My husband and I live in Henderson (boulder and sunset-ish) and would like to find a meeting within the vicinity. His schedule varies, but I'm free most evenings (though I have a bedtime on school nights).

We are planning some at Cheesecake and Crime on Thursdays starting in Nov and on the weekends we are still looking for a place. It might be Rejunate (or ever how you spell it) on Flamingo near Pecos.
