Sounds good to everything! (and I'm not even going to take time to quote it )

Hey, cool I found the discussion topic! XD

OH, and here's the link to the Short Story cabin so you can put it on the front page. https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/3901624

Ahh, I'm sorry! I've been slowly linking it to everybody in the cabins, but I must have forgotten Short Story. >.< Oh well, you found it now.
Awesome, thanks!

Hey fellow leaders

Hello!

I am so excited for camp! It's going to be so amazing. <3

Alright- so about me leaving in April.
I'm definitely going to be taking a hiatus- sort of as a Lent thing. I'll be leaving April first, and I don't know when I'll be back. The 16th is the latest I'll be gone until, but I might be back earlier.
I've updated the description to include everybody I've added, and we're currently all caught up in the way of adding people.
With placing people in cabins- just put them in the cabin that has less people. If the cabins are tied, they'll get their first choice.
I think that's it! I'm so sorry about this- I never would have put out sign-ups so early had I known I was going to do this.
I'll see ya'll in April! <3

Hiya Candy - How was your break?
A cabin member of mine asked: “How will we be sharing our stories with each other?” I wasn't exactly sure of the answer, what had you planned?
Thanks

It was good! (Actually, I'll officially be back tomorrow- I've been kind of hiding because I have some stuff to do. )
Sharing your stories isn't actually required. If scratchers would like to do so, you can recommend that they put them in a project, or, if they're too long for that, I'd highly recommend fictionpress.com . I know some other scratchers have had good experiences with wattpad, as well, so you might try recommending that. Basically, just steer them away from anything that's private-messaging-esque. Fictionpress does have a private messaging option, but you can disable it for safety purposes, if you'd like. (I've done so.) I don't know about Wattpad. I'd prefer that they don't share links to things like Google Docs, and especially not to sites like Discord.

Ok, thanks!

Hey, I just thought I'd let you guys know that I'll be traveling from March 16-29 and won't be on Scratch much. I'll check profile comments, but probably nothing else.

Alrighty, so I put together a detailed schedule for camp. I wasn't planning to share this until camp actually started, but since I'm still kinda unsure about my activity levels, I'll put it here so you guys have it if you need it. <3

Oh sorry. XD it means something is happening in the main cabin- so, for instance, the writing sprints will happen in the main cabin, as will most of the activities.
