That sounds great! I'm definitely going to try to be there for our meet-in-greet. I'm sadly unsure about the kick-off party - something tells me I have an essay or something due for school the next day... yup, an essay due for French. T.T Ah, well, maybe I can come for a little while. Is there an RSVP deadline?

I'm pretty sure I can make the Wednesday sessions.. I'd just have to leave by nine thirty but even a few hours would be better then nothing really. :)

9:30 gives you plenty of time! I expect we'd be wrapping up by 9 or 10 anyway, depending on what people want. We look forward to seeing you at the write-ins! :)

I just sent out an email about the write-in this week at UNB. Let me or Susan know if you have any questions!

Please also note the change in location above for the Nov. 14 write-in. It will now be at the Second Cup downtown at King's Place.

There will also be another (informal, adult) write-in this weekend at my house (more info above). Please RSVP (fredericton_nb@nanowrimo.org) with your email and I will send you my address. Hope to see many of you this Wednesday or Saturday!

I'm moving to Fredericton next weekend and if I don't have to work on the evening of the 21st, I'll see you at the write-in then. I might have to work, though. I don't know yet what my schedule is, and there's a 50/50 chance I'll be working that night.

I just arrived at my new abode in Ontario. I'll have plenty of time to write from now on.

I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed the write-in we had a UNB. I apologise for leaving early, but I had an early morning yesterday.

It was a pleasure meeting you all, take care and we'll see you again next year!

Note that I've added locations to the events in this post, and added a new event (another Saturday party/write-in at my place on the 24th), and I've re-arranged the events so the newest ones are at the top.

Soleta, the first post in this thread says that the location of the write in is Doodles, but the calendar you link to in your sig says Second Cup. Which is right?

The write-in on the 21st is at Doodles. There actually isn't a calendar entry for that yet (the Second Cup entry is for the 14th. Not sure why there are two entries for that).

I added the rest of the events to the calendar. That should make it clearer!

Where exactly is the Charlotte Street Arts Centre? I'll be there if I can find it, but I've had a bit of trouble finding most of the write-in locations.

The Charlotte Street Arts Centre is at 732 Charlotte Street in Fredericton, between Church and St. John Streets. Or it's on Google Maps here. I'm not sure where the entrance is for the new coffee shop; at the Underground it was on the left side, then you go down the stairs to the basement.

I can see having trouble finding the UNB write-in if you don't know campus, but did you also have trouble finding the Second Cup downtown?

Ah, thank you. Assuming that I can find somewhere to park, I should be all right. For some reason, I'm thinking of the Arts Centre as that place that only allows commercial parking, but I'm probably mistaken.

The Second Cup wasn't a problem. I knew where King's Place was, and when I just happened to pass it one day, I took a glance over and saw the Second Cup from outside. UNB was a problem, though, and it took me a bit of time to find your apartment, too.

There should be free parking in the back of the building and along the side where the entrance is.

If anyone who's coming to the Party/Write-In tonight at my place reads this, please bring a power bar if you have one! Hopefully someone will bring at least one, or it will be difficult to find outlets for those people who need to plug in. Thanks in advance!
