Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

So what do

So what do you do on Cricket exactly? I read a few magazines from a friend and I checked out the website.

So do you just talk about books or do you like to make up stories and  let other people join? I was hoping to start a story? We could add things from differant stories and things!

We do a lot of things here. We do write stories together (look on Inkwell, there are about a billion and you can create your own) and we do discuss books (usually on Blab about Books, obviously) and we do do other things. There are games called SIs (Secret Identities) where people disguise themselves as other people, such as book characters or movie actors or something. People try to guess who the other people are. Like, if the theme is authors, we might have people saying;

"I'm Rick Riordan and this is an author SI!"

"I'm Lewis Carrol. Is Rick Riordan Blue?"

"No, I am not Blue. Are you Ruby?" And so on and so forth.

We also do occasionallt do more creative things, such as host murder mysteries, start wars, instant chat, or interview each other. Right now, the most interesting thing, I guess, is a team writing game we are doing on Inkwell. You can pair up with someone and write a fantasy story together.

We also create quizzes and there is a new drawing game called Add-On.

And AO (Add-on). We suggest a bunch of features for a cartoon guy, stop putting up features by a set date, and then draw pictures of the person. Then we all each post our own versions of the person. It was my idea. (I didn't invent the game concept, just introduced it here.)
