ALLLLLLL ABOARRRRRRD!!!
The Crazy Train will officially be leaving the station at MIDNIGHT, OCTOBER 31ST.
That’s right. Thanks to your fellow Nano’er Tweety, we will be hosting a MIDNIGHT KICK OFF PARTY AT IHOP IN WINCHESTER.
And by party we mean working those stubby little fingers to the bone for the fastest, furious writing session of your life!!! Surrounded by your fellow Wrimo’s, the smell of greasy breakfast foods and the daunting yet curious stares of strangers all around us, our Valley Region will kick off yet another FABULOUS month of NOVELING MADNESS!!
WHEN: OCTOBER 31, 2008
WHERE: I.H.O.P.
170 Front Royal Pike
Winchester, VA 22602-7312
(540) 542-1755
TIME: 11:00 PM- MEET & GREET
Come out, check out your competition, chat up your fellow Nano’ers, discuss storylines and get all that daggum talking outta your system because come MIDNIGHT…
12:00 AM- YOU WILL BE WRITING LIKE THE HOUNDS OF HELL ARE ON YOUR HEELS!!
For the next hour we will be weaving the words that will grace the pages of
AMERICA’S NEXT BEST SELLER!! And you will be OUTRAGEOUSLY HAPPY ABOUT IT!! Thats an order! LOL
So you can see how this would be serious business and how you would need the support and encouragement of all your fellow Wrimoers around you…*nods sagely* I knew you would agree!
I.H.O.P. is open 24 Hours, so after our Kickoff ends roughly around 1AM, you Die-Hards who want to keep on writing, may do so. However, some of us will be promptly seeking out our beds so that we can get a fresh start several hours later on our BELOVED NOVEMBER 1ST.
SOOOOOO, WHO WANTS A TICKET ON THE CRAZY TRAIN?!!!
RSVP, ASAP!!
Peace, Love & Ticket Punching!
Your Co-Conductors,
LaMishia & Susan

"I'm going off the rails on a crazy train" (or something like that...) "People think I'm insane because I am frowning all the time..." Your fault ML's, for getting Ozzy stuck in my head.
IHOP it is! And you can count on me. Look for the guy in the obnoxious red Aloha shirt. It's a NaNo Tradition for me...

WOO HOO!! I'll be there too! I already called my mom and told her what time I had to be there! She said it was fine! Now I have to figure out how to gently spring the idea of my kids staying with her or my sister til that Sunday! *giggles*
See y'all on Halloween!
Peace, Love, and Giggles,

Not 100% committed, but pretty sure I'll be there...just pencil me in.
Is this the only planned Write-in for Winchester? I checked the calendar, and I see Front Royal and Stephens City, but no Winchester.

Hi JannyLynn,
Yes, the Kickoff is the only one so far, but you will see all the familiar faces at the Stephens City Write-ins. This became the popular venue last year for Winchester and Front Royal. Quiet, comfortable and only a few minutes outside of Winchester. Borders was a bit busy for getting any quality writing done so most of opted for the private rooms of the library.
The Front Royal morning write-ins are an added bonus from last year. Since this is where I live and I am going to writing anyway I thought I would write in a public place so others can join me if they like. So if you are free Monday mornings come on over. We are just 15 miles down 522!
The events on the calendar for the Greater Winchester area (including SC & FR) will all be hosted by either LaMishia or myself and sometimes both. If you would like to set something else up on another day of the week to give everyone more options that would be super. Just let us know the date, time and location of where you will host the write-in and I will put it on the calendar and post a new thread to the forum so everyone will know where to find you. We might even be able to drop by ourselves!

I hope nobody thought I was complaining :)...I was just curious.
I should be able to make the Saturday Write-ins...Wednesday evening is questionable, but may make one or two.
And the possibility of being at IHOP on Halloween just jumped to 90%. Now it all depends on if I can stay awake long enough.

Yay 90%! Let's hope you get to 100% and trust me, you and I are in the same boat. I will be feeling sleepy time around 10:00 so I am going to need to coffee up as soon as I get there! Hope to see you there!

I'm going to try to make it, my hubby might be going up to the World Series celebration party in Philly this weekend though, so I have to wait and see when he's leaving. I'll be there in spirit if not in real life!
