If you're interested in a low-key (i.e. no word wars and no prizes) write-in followed by an optional social meet-up, come to Ballydoyle in Downer's Grove on Sunday, Nov. 20th. Or you can come to dinner without coming to the write-in, it's up to you.

3:30 - 5:30 - writing (There are some cool places at Ballydoyle, and yes, they have wifi)

5:30 - 7:30 - socializing over dinner while listening to the fabulous Whiskey Brothers -- our own NaNo writer Paula is a member! We usually sit near the band, but since this is a meet-up, we'll probably sit further back so we can talk (and listen) while eating.

This is a pub, so if you're under 18, please bring a parent along. And it is a business, so please plan on ordering something to eat and/or drink if you're going to be there for any length of time.

An indication of interest is appreciated, but not required. Look for the people with laptops (and I'll have a NaNoWriMo sign on the table during dinner.)

I'll see you there!

This sounds fun. I'll do my best to make it.

I'll be there!

We have some things to accomplish today first, but Bart (at 5:30) and I (at 3:30) hope to make it.

Hope to see people here.

Eight people -- come and join us if you want a low-key write-in.
