The Transit Write-in went very well! 16 people came to ride the Canada Line to the Airport, took the Expo line from Waterfront to King George and back again, and then did a Sea Bus trip for kicks. Of the 16 people, 12 have sent in their word counts, and collectively, those 12 people managed to write 25k. Still waiting on the other 4 people to send me theirs!
We’re coming up on the final days of NaNoWriMo. Congrats to everyone who has hit (and passed!) 50,000 words. Jennerosity has sent a regional e-mail out to all our Vancouver-affiliated wrimos with words of encouragement and news of regional goings-on. The e-mail will be posted here for posterity … as soon as one of us has time.
As things are coming to an end, we also want to remind participants that the TGIO parties (you heard right – there will be two) are going to be coming up, and to please RSVP to one you will be able to make it to. Jennerosity is terribly organized and already has the Thursday evening (December 1st) thread up. MysteriousAges is being a slacker, and avoiding calling restaurants. His will fall on the Saturday (December 5th) and take place around the same time as the Kickoff did. Probably.
As always, check the forums for the most up-to-date information. As November comes to an end, expect to see more extra-nano activities/information popping up on the site. Some people have been asking about writing groups, and we plan to make information available to people about it.
