I’ve been involved with NaNoWriMo since 2005 in the Dayton, Ohio region.
This year, I’m the Municipal Liaison for the “Elsewhere in Ohio” region, and am running a few events in and around Urbana, Ohio.
Since this region is so spread out, I’ve scheduled a kick off event in my own town, and I’m planning a few other events in my area. I’m hoping to try to do some online networking as well…more to come soon. Really.
For those in the Logan/Champaign/Clark county areas of Ohio…(and, well, Union, Madison, Miami, or Greene counties as well…)
There is a kick off event scheduled for
OCTOBER 29, 2011 FROM 2 PM UNTIL 5 PM IN THE CHAMPAIGN COUNTY LIBRARY MEETING ROOM.
I’ll be there…and I’m hoping to push/pull/drag a few people into helping out.
I’ll provide some snacks (and maybe cookies!) and will be there to answer questions about the event, talk about writing, and otherwise see what I can do to encourage others to take on the manic insanity of writing a novel in 30 days!
Come join us!
Weathering the Storm 
Have fun! I was supposed to be ML last year and well…morning sickness kicked in. I hope to take part in NaNo again this year but just as a regular member 🙂 Also it seems like I’m the only one in the writing group committing to it this year.
Dara, you can always come up and join me on the 29th…hint hint!
