OK. What do you need help with, though?

Okay; I'd be glad to help you! :) What specifically do you need help with, though? Remember: new threads, when commented on, often go to the last or second-to-last page of the queue, so if you can't find a thread, that's probably where it is. Also, posting these things in Down to Earth instead of Inkwell might get more people to read them. Hope these tips help! Don't be afraid to ask for more! :)

Ah. Whatever is big in your life, although I can't promise that will make it. Like someone posted in DtE that they had landed a frontflip on their trampoline, and that didn't get many comments, if I remember correctly. If something exciting happens, post about it. If you read a great book, post about it. If you write a poem, post about it. If you need advice, post about it. If you post about something that happened, be assured that people will read it, but there's not always a whole lot to say about a story someone tells, no matter how interesting, so keep in mind that if not many people reply, there are still probably a ton of people who read it and enjoyed it. Hmmm..... That's all I can think about. :D

Emily has good ideas. Just post and comment on other people's stuff whenever it feels appropriate to you. Hope this helps! :)

Oh, and by the way, typing in bold or all caps can make people get defensive, cause it seems like you're yelling at them and are mad at them. It's a good thing to avoid, in general. I don't mean to criticize you, but you said you wanted help getting around, so there's another tip.

Well, Choco, I admit that I laughed at the first few comments... I think you should write about a kid like you. If you don't want to, create your own world! It can have whatever creatures you want; whether aliens or dragons; it can be futuristic, fairy-tale-ish, or unrealistic. Good luck!

I think that Choco ment what to comment about on his (her?) posts.

Number one, I'm a girl, and number two, are you a boy?

Choco, I think you should write about some kind of life-changing exprience, but make it bookish.  I know yours are awesome!!Smile  Good luck!!!

Choco, you could write about your favorite things, what you like to do, any random thing that comes to mind. (But you might want to put the random things in CaC unless it's a writing thing, like something like a Round Robin. Also, you could type up any stories or poems that you are writing of you want feedback on it..... Have fun on the Chatterbox!
