We will be having our traditional kick-off party at The Pie on Satuday, October 31st from 1-5pm.
Date corrected: it will be on Saturday. I don't expect people to trek down to South Jordan in the middle of a workday.
The Pie
10607 S Redwood Rd, South Jordan, UT

I ask that everyone contribute at least $5 to pay for the group pizzas. You are responsible for your own drinks or other extras. Come on out and meet your fellow writers!
We usually take over the patio area, though some years we just don't manage to scare everyone away. Don't worry, there are heaters if it's cold out.
RSVP here or to me at slcnano@greatbird.com. You are welcome to bring family and friends.
If you need a ride from Trax, or can carpool to help others attend, please post here also.
See you at The Pie!

Oh, I'd love to come, but I'd have to find someone to pick up my shift at work that day. If I were able to get it off, would anyone be able to give me a ride from either the trax stop or the university?

I'm new here.... are we meeting up at the Pie with our laptops or are we just meeting up to hang out together?

Some people have brought computers in the past, but this year the kick-off is the day before November, so you can't start writing that day anyway.
No, we just meet each other, hang out, goof off, do stupid human tricks (have you got any?), and have pizza.

I think I'll come this year. Was going to come last year but I'm afraid of people. May need to car pool if there's anyone going from Salt Lake/Sugarhouse area. Will pay for gases and buy you a soda if you don't murder me on the way there . . . can't do anything about the way back I guess because you'll have already gotten your soda and thus there will be little consequence to killing me . . . except that whole illegal and damnable part. *Ahem* Yeah, I'll be there.

Hello! I'd love a ride from trax or something like that. I live in the avenues very close to the University, so if anyone is up there already a ride down would be choice.

Well I'm planning on going. This is only my second year doing NaNoWriMo and since failing last year, i'm determined to do what I can /this/ year to psyche myself up and finish 50,000 in one month. So I'll be seeing you all there! =D

Hi! This is my first year doing this (Yay!) anyways I would love to go but I'll need a ride from/to the trax station. I'll provide gas money.

Okay, my roommate is definitely not coming this year and that means that I'm gonna need a ride at least from trax. If anyone is willing or able to help me out here, please email me and let me know. barelyevil@gmail.com. I'm a chubby and nonthreatening and nonjudgmental type of girl, so don't be shy about inviting me into your car, however dirty it may be. :p

Sounds fun but unfortunately my wife decided she wanted to host a party for our friends this year because she didn't have enough to do already.
Wait, did I say that? Yes, I guess I did. You all know what I mean, I'm sure. ;)
Anyway, our party is from 4-6 and we don't live all that close to The Pie so going just for the beginning isn't gonna happen either. Besides, my wife would kill me if I did that - house must be cleaned and all that. Wimmin.

I have to UN- RSVP. The flu finally caught up with me - I've spent most of today in bed. I'm sure you'd all rather I didn't bring this yuk. I'll catch a write-in later on. Have fun without me!

Sorry to hear that. No, I don't think we want you to bring us the flu. Look forward to meeting you at a write-in later in the month.

We've got a good sized group that has RSVPed with lots of new people in the list. Fantastic!
Everyone else, if you find you can make it at the last minute, feel free to join us! We'll be out on the patio (to your right as you enter the restaurant). See y'all tomorrow!
