I've heard and seen a lot of people revive old threads. How do you do it? Thanks!

Like this. Just post.

Also, everybody talks about Nano. What is Nano?yn

NaNo is National Novel Writing Month. It happens in November, so that's why everyone has been talking about it. To win you have to write 50,000 words in one month.

I'm considering entering Nano next year. I have a few questions, is there a "theme" per contest, do other people start writing before November, and how do you win? What is it all about? I'm REALLY anxious to know! I love writing and this would be a great challenge! Thanks!

November- or National Novel Writing Month. One of the others can explain it better than me.
And a word of advice: Never, ever, agree to help a kid walk $280 worth of See's Candies home. Even if it is only ten minutes away. My back is very sore.

@ Sakura C: Oh, thank you! I'll be sure to remember that.
@ Ivy: Thank you too! My friend has talked about that, but I've never known what it was called. I TOTALLY want to try!

How do you decide who wins a contest?
In judging Cricket League contests we consider the quality of the work, how well it develops the theme of the contest, and originality. We also take the age of the writer or artist into consideration. We get so many great entries that sometime it's really hard to decide which ones are better than others. We consider each person who has done his/her best in creating an entry a winner.

Somebody asked a question and you answered similar to the answer I would like to receive but how do you become an Admin?
Well, we all first got jobs at Cricket in the editorial department. To accomplish that, we went to college, and we all love reading good literature and are familiar with children's literature.

I entered for the September 2012 poetry contest, and got an honorable mention, but it wasn't in the magazine or on the website. Do you know why that is?
Send me your last name, True, in a reply to this comment. I won't post it, but I'll be able to look up your record and try to figure out what happened. I do think I remember your first name being in Cricket League sometime, but am not finding it in September/January. OR, better yet, send an email to: cricket@cricketmagkids.com with Cricket League in the subject line. It will be easier for us to figure it out that way.

Okay. . . this ask admin thing. . . I had a question. . . if I wanted to start a thread about comics would I go to Chirp at Cricket (chirp chirp) Inkwell, Puddings Place, Down to Earth, or Blab about Books (for there are some books and authors I would need to mention.)
I'm hoping that this will help get my question answered.
If you intend to discuss features of various comics, I would suggest Blab About Books. If you just mean the Cricket comics, then I'd go to Chirp at Cricket. If it's about writing and drawing comics, then Inkwell. We're usually not really strict about what goes where and realize that many threads will include a variety of comments that may pertain to more than one of the sections of Chatterbox.

There was a thread about webcomics not long ago… I put it in Pudding's Place because that's where all the drawing stuff migrates to and… yeah.
Yava says kpcb. Keep the CB, yes.

I posted a thread about my book I'm writing about The Lemming War. I saw it on the front page once or twice and then it dissapeared. It's not on the last page, or the second to last either. Could you maybe find it? Or if not, at least tell me what happened to it?
Admin: You found this, right? I see you posted in it yesterday. http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/chirpatcricket/node/110279

Hi Admins. Where should I post a thread about weird but true state laws? Should it go in DtE?
Thanks, Violet (wishing myself across the world)
Admin: That sounds grrreat to me!

Thanks Admin!
Admin: YW!
