We'll be meeting at Viget in Durham in the middle of June to discuss the new O'Reilly book Lean UX, written by Jeff Gothelf. There will be a Raleigh meeting too in case you can't make this one.
Process is a hot topic at the moment, and for good reason. It's common that we can produce some of our best work, only to have it rejected when the client sees the finished product. Lean UX offers strategies and approaches for helping UX people figure out what they need to do and how so that we can learn what we need to know to make clients and customers happy as efficiently as possible.
You can buy the book here: http://www.amazon.com/Lean-UX-Applying-Principles-Experience/dp/1449311652/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1364318978&sr=8-1&keywords=lean+ux
