Motivation!
Plot Critter! :D
Is it possible for you to mail the critter to us, as I'm not entirely sure I am allowed to make any of the NNWM meetings.


I'm glad you're motivated!

I'd prefer not to have to mail critters as the expenses add up and all of this comes out of my own pocket; all of our meetings are open to the public and in public venues--everyone is welcome to attend. If it is a matter of parental permission, you could note to them that our region has great partnerships with area libraries, especially a long standing one with the Naperville Public Library that goes back to 2006. Also, in addition to my polished credentials as a volunteer Municipal Liaison ;-), I'm also a Distinguished Member of the Technical Staff at Alcatel-Lucent and a happily married parent of a student at Naperville North High School :-)

I really hope you'll be able to come to our TGIO (note: depending on the number of folks taking this challenge and the number of critters I give out tomorrow and Sunday, I might not have all of them ready by December 3rd, but there is a chance). If not, we will have Journey events in 2012.

If, after all of that, we aren't able to get the critter to you (and you make the 18,000 word total), nanomail me and we'll see what we can do.

Good luck! And let me know if you have other questions.

Cheers,
