Region/Europe/England/Liverpool

The Europe::England::Liverpool NaNoWriMo region is based in Liverpool.
==Meetings==
Prior to 2024, Wrimos located in or around the Liverpool area were welcome to attend write-ins during the novelling season. These sessions traditionally fell on Saturday and Wednesday afternoons across the month of November, and took place in local coffee shops. "Word sprints" were held regularly at write-ins; to encourage productivity, everyone remained silent for the duration of a timer to focus on their projects. The Municipal Liaison (ML) also arranged a Kick-Off Party in the run-up to November, and a "TGIO" (Thank Goodness It's Over) Party in celebration of the event's end.
Through the rest of the year, monthly meet-ups helped Wrimos stay in touch with each other. These social gatherings were more casual: members were free to work on personal projects if they wished, or simply chatted together over a warm drink. Other activities sometimes unfolded as well, including card games and in-depths discussions of TV shows.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Liverpool's write-ins in 2020 and 2021 were held exclusively online. They took place in the region's Discord server, and ran word sprints twice an hour. Once the global lockdown ended, in-person sessions were reintroduced on Saturdays in November 2022. Wednesday write-ins remained virtual, to accommodate people unable to travel or with busy weekend schedules. These meet-ups continued in 2023. 
The Liverpool region's official meet-ups ended in 2024, when the community severed ties with NaNoWriMo due to various controversies within the organisation.

==Municipal Liaisons==
===Present===
None.
In March 2024, NaNoWriMo HQ stripped all Municipal Liaisons worldwide of their roles in order to begin instating their new Agreement with volunteers. Liverpool's ML at the time, MLFinney, had already declared her retirement from the position, and no new candidates have yet to express interest in officially leading the region. MLFinney continues to host monthly meet-ups in the interim, to preserve a sense of community until definitive plans are made.
