Anyone else around the general Elmhurst area? As much as I would love to join some of the write-ins in Naperville and Aurora, the time I would spend getting there and back is valuable time I could be writing.

I'm in Glen Ellyn! Somewhat close to you. I probably won't make it to the Naperville and Aurora write-ins either. The traffic going that direction is usually... unpleasant. The write-in the 14th at the Lombard library might be a good option for you, but that looks like the only one so far in the Elmhurst area. Do you feel up to starting a new one?

I would, but my schedule fluctuates and I can't be certain when to plan it. Also, this is my first NaNoWriMo, so I don't know how good of a host I would be.
