The first Thank The Stars It's Over party will be held in the Kiwi Writers chatroom on July 1st, NZ Time from 8pm. Xengab will be hosting a Thank The Stars It's Over party across the US time zones and will, hopefully, post here to tell you all the times. Please come and celebrate with us whether or not you wrote anything, whether or not you reached 50,000 words. We thank you all for being a part of it! 27 Jun 2008 20:33:24 No Excuses. Just Write.

Here are the details for those who are timezone challenged: Auckland (New Zealand) Tuesday, 1 July 2008, 20:00:00 UTC+12 hours UTC Tuesday, 1 July 2008, 08:00:00 Auckland is 12hrs ahead of the UK. (UTC / Zulu) (Sorry, I kinda know how timezones work, and I only have to know if it's - UTC or UTC+ to work it out. I won't bore you, but it's actually very easy to work out once you know how.:)) 29 Jun 2008 15:26:22

I hope everyone ate an extra slice of cake! ;-) I'll see if I can log into the chat room some other time, just for fun. :-) 02 Jul 2008 17:20:56 http://mousewords.wordpress.com
