beware the platymanagoat!

Today (Sunday, October 25) is the first official event of the Sacramento region: The “Lazy Meet-N-Greet” at 2:00. You know we’re being lazy because we didn’t even mention it here until the day of the event.

The event is located at Panera Bakery:

Panera Bread, 3328 El Camino Ave, Sacramento
(near the corner of El Camino and Watt)

Hope to see you there!

The Sacramento region has officially entered a word war with the nation of Finland! Swing on to the regional forums at the NaNoWriMo website for more details.

Below are the days and times of the various write-ins that will be happening in Sacramento and the surrounding regions:

We’re looking for venues in Sacramento where we can have our write-ins. Anyone got any suggestions?

If you’ve got a spare hour or two and want to earn the love of your Municipal Liaisons, why not mosey on over to the downloadable fliers page on the NaNoWriMo website, copy off a few, and post them up around your area? Kat and I can spread the word through downtown Sacramento but we’re only two people. The more fliers that get put up in our region, the better. More fliers = more participants, and if we get enough participants we can move forward with our plan to annex the East Bay region.

And as always, thanks for your ongoing support.

The NaNoWriMo website is back up! Enjoy!

The guys at NaNoWriMo HQ are reporting that they’re having some database issues right now, so the site is down and inaccessible. Hang tight, and we promise that everything will be all right.
