Welcome!

Welcome to the web home of the Guelph Wrimos!

We are participants in the international craziness known as National Novel Writing Month who work/play/live in and about Guelph, Ontario.

We don't have an "official" region over in NaNo land -- and the NaNo web servers tend to get rather overloaded and shaky this time of year in any case -- so I've set up this blog to enable Guelph Wrimos to stay in touch with one another and keep up to date with local happenings, even on those days when the main NaNo web site is inaccessible.

I will continue to try to post all Guelph events in our forum thread over in NaNo land, but I will be posting them here as well. So, if you're having trouble getting into the NaNo site, or just want a faster experience, or would like to subscribe to get updates (thread subscriptions haven't been working for me over at NaNo for a few weeks now, but the Blogger site feed should be fine), then this is the place to be.

If you're a Guelph Wrimo and would like the ability to add your own posts to this blog, please drop me a line with your email address and I will send you an invite. Email to laura at rainbowdragon dot ca is the fastest way to reach me. (I try to check my NaNo mail regularly too, but I'm having trouble accessing the site at present.)

If you're a Guelph Wrimo and don't see your name in our roll call on the right, please let me know your NaNo username and number (email to the above address, or simply submit as a comment to this post) and I'll add you ASAP.

Good luck on NaNoWriMo 2008 everyone!
