This is a thank you to our MLs for all the hard work they do supporting us throughout NaNo; arranging the library crawls, the prep workshops, the e-mails, and all the general fun stuff! I just wanted to say, even though I'm usually too busy to read your regional e-mails, I appreciate getting them if for no other reason than to know someone is out there, cheering me on.

Thanks, Sarah; and I want to thank you and volunteers like you. Your preparatory workshop this year was fantastic (really changed my view about accepting everything that I write in November--it all serves a purpose) and I really liked the hipsterPDAs you designed for us. Thank you!

Thanks to Tim for year-after-year devotion to NaNoWriMo and the Naperville (and beyond!) region.

Thanks to Sam for stepping in and stepping up to help with events, write-ins and encouragement.

Thanks to Melinda for being brave enough to come back and ML with Tim again. :)

Thank you all for your e-mails and posts and words of encouragement.

Thank you for the graph and all of the other tools that keep us going and keep me inspired when I feel like throwing up my hands in defeat.

Thank you for being there for us year after year.

Thank you.

ML - been there, done that. So thankful for you three for all your work and encouragement. Tim, you are the anchor for the region, and have helped me tap into my writing passion. Thank you Sam for your bowls of doom and gloom. Melinda, I remember you at my first TGIO party. I'd never heard of chick lit before than (you could say I had a sheltered life. LOL). Thanks for your part in making this such a great region!

To our MLs I say!

Hooray!

Thanks so much, MLs, for all that you do throughout November and during the lead-up as well!

I'm so glad even a veteran like yourself was able to glean something useful from my presentation. But, you really do give me too much credit for the PDAs. You did all the design work, I just wrote the copy and basic formatting. :)

Our MLs are welcoming, creative, and just plain fun. Thanks for the tons of work you put into this, Tim, Sam, and Melinda!

Thank you all for your very kind words and terrific support of the region through your prep workshops, write-in hosting, forum posting and financial support in our time of need last year. You're the reason that it's great to be a volunteer in our wonderful region.

--Tim

Thanks for all the kind messages and thanks go out to everyone in the region for making this another fantastic Nano season. Everything you do from volunteering to host write-ins to posting in the forums is what makes this such a great region.

I echo Tim & Sam (who really deserve WAY more credit than I do) but NaNoWriMo Naperville is the best region hands down... I'm gonna miss the heck out of you guys next year :(
