On October 4th, we met at the 95th library for the kick-off. We worked on plot and characters, including writing a few line plot and passing it around our table for twists. The question and answer included testimonials from people who have done NaNoWriMo before. Add in brownies, cookies, and a reporter, and I’m sure anyone who missed it is now lamenting.
Fear not! The next event is October 18th from 2-4 at Panera on Ogden Avenue in Naperville. Feel free to arrive around 1:15 and eat lunch with us–tables near the door is the plan. Hope to see you there.

Among the goodies that attendees received were this year’s NaNo hipster PDA and a special Message-in-a-Bottle (to be carefully opened in emergency or at the successful end of NaNo):
