Chatterbox: In This Month's Issue

CB Egg Hunt!

So there’s been egg hunts on the CB in the past, but I haven’t seen any recently, so I thought I’d revive this fun idea :D

For those of you who haven’t participated in a CB egg hunt before and don’t know what it is — basically, the host (me) will post “eggs” on random threads. The format will go something like this: “Congratulations! You have found the XXX egg! Post
“XYZ” on the Egg Hunt thread to get a point!” And then you will post XYZ on the Egg Hunt thread (this thread) to get a point. Points can be used in the store (see bottom of the post)

Rules:

1. Remember, eggs can be on any thread in the CB! (I mean, I’m obviously not going to post an egg on a solo write from January 26th, 2018 that’s on page 90 of Inkwell...or will I?...but you get the idea) 

2. Please, please don’t just cheat and post what other people are posting on this threat and not find the eggs yourself. I know I can’t stop you, but please be honest and play fair — it’s much more fun for everyone that way. 

3. The deadline for finding eggs is April 30th. You must submit all comments before then for your points to be counted. *Note: comments must be submitted by then, they don’t necessarily have to appear. Also, purchases from the store can still be made after the deadline! :D

4. If you purchase something from the store, be patient! I’m only one person, and I likely have a lot of purchases to get through, plus my own life. Drawn picturings and playlists will probably take 1-3 days, and written stuff will likely take up to 4-5 days, or more if I’m busy. 

5. Feel free to guess me (I’ll reveal myself after the deadline)

6. have fun :D 

~STORE~

Two points — Playlist/Song Recommendations (Basic – 4 songs)

Four points — Playlist/Song Recommendations (Deluxe – 10 songs)

Six points — Sketched Picturing

Eight points — Inked Picturing

Ten points — Written Picturing

Twelve Points — Full Color Picturing

Twenty points — Short Story (probably more like flash fiction in length): you give me the prompt and I’ll write a short story based on that. 

(Please note that THIS thread is only for claiming points and announcements related to the egg hunt, not for actually purchasing things from the store. I'll post the official store where you can actually buy things in a separate thread soon)

Woo hoo! eggseggseggs...

Put something (unbreakable, preferably - also preferably cold and hard) into someone's bed in a place where you're sure it will soon be felt. It actually does work - it makes whoever it is think there's a snail or something in the bed? idk. APRIL FOOLS!!!!

And now I think I might know who you are, @The Egghead - are you pangolin, by any chance?

I'm actually a 42 year old woman who lives in Long Island and I'm an aspiring bagpipist. I also run a hot dog stand on the side. I have two cats, Emily and Yoppers, and my spit is blue and I have no toes and I hate cHiLdReN like I wish I could just turn them all into mice or something.
