Okay, here's the official word on the parties celebrating the end of this frenzy otherwise known as NaNoWriMo.

On Thursday, November 29th, at 7 o'clock in the evening, we'll be invading the Daytona Ale House again for our TGIAO party, or the "Winner's Party". If you're done, if you're looking for a break, if you want to celebrate how much you did get done, feel free to come out.

Next Thursday, December 6th, again at 7 in the evening and again at the Ale House, we'll have our official TGIO party, since the month will be, ya know, over by then. It's the "Straggler's Party" for everyone that couldn't bear to seperate themselves from their writing for an evening on the 29th, or for those that just want to come out and have some fun again. (I'll be at both of 'em.)

Feel free to NaNo mail or e-mail Bruce or me if you have any questions, or you can just post here.

I live in Edgewater, so I'm going to need directions to the Ale House. I don't get out much *grin* Thanks!

No prob. Bruce posted some good directions to the Ale House back in the kick-off party thread, but it's right off of International Speedway Blvd. Turn into the Krystal/Old Navy/Michael's shopping center and wind your way around to the Holiday Inn -- the Ale House is right next to it.

I'll make Bruce post something clearer later. xD

Thank God is right! I did it......at least I got the word count, maybe not book of the year, but made my 50,000. Thanks a million for your help and encouragement. Now how do I get it out of here?? I'll see you sunday for the rest.

Good job, Joyce! You and Dellani kicked some serious butt!! I'm nearing 42K, and feeling pretty good about myself, so hopefully, we can all drag ourselves across the line ... no matter how battle-scarred and bloody we are! LOL

See you on Sunday, tho I may be a little late, because of wrapping up the Turkey Run car show. We still have a Friday night write-in, so anyone that needs the writing time and companionship (or cheerleading!) can come on out.

Finishing is a pretty amazing thing. I hope to see most of you Thursday at the first wrap party! TGIAO!

Not sure I'll make it this Thursday because I have things to do on Tuesday and Wednesday this week. If I leave my 15 yr old in charge of my 11 yr old too many nights in a row, I worry about what I'll find when I get home. ie. parts of the younger one distributed around the yard or something. No, they don't get along well, they're brothers.... The younger one can be a really annoying pain in the butt and the older one tolerates it for about fifteen seconds - give or take a few. However, I will get to the "official" TGIO party the following Thursday.

The dinner last night was awesome, and many thanks to all that attended!

The official TGIO party will be December 6th, seven o'clock, at the Ale House again. Be there or be square. ^^
