Next year's plot will revolve around 'secrets revealed.' If your character has something they've been hiding, let us know! This could be something trivial, like someone they have a crush on, to a big dark dirty secret. We're looking for a range, so no secret is too big or too small.
These secrets will be revealed over the course of the term, though some may be phrased cryptically and most will not directly name the person (e.g. 'Someone likes someone they shouldn't.....'). Again, there will be variety in this, so if you would prefer your secret to be more cryptic, let us know.
In order to maintain surprise for other authors, please EMAIL your secrets - do not post them here. The site email is sonora.academy.head at gmail.com
It’s that time for the yearbook survey. For those of you who are new, the yearbook is something that I do as a side project for the site. It is not maintained by the staff, so questions should be directed to me or my email, sonorarpkids@gmail.com.
Every term when the Midsummer event takes place, a yearbook is provided to the students as a 'thanks for the year' treat. The students participate with the yearbook by providing surveys for the award section of the book. You, as the author, will complete the forms for each of your characters as best as you can. This will get easier each year as you begin to develop relationships with your character's peers.
PLEASE NOTE: I have noticed in the last yearbook survey that there have been a large number of surveys where the author looked to be favoring his/her own characters in the ‘School Wide’ section. The point of this section is to be fair to ALL students at the school and to NOT try to win all of the votes for your own characters. Going forward, I will not accept these votes when it is showing favoritism. I understand that sometimes your character does fit into a category for that section and that is fine, but when an author has multiple characters and they all vote the same in that section, it’s favoritism and takes away from the fun of the yearbook.
I am asking for all surveys to be completed by April 24th as this will give me time to tally them and complete the yearbook by the time the event rolls around. Please email them to me at the email address provided above.
Here is the most current active list to base your answers on (those with ? marks next to their names are characters that have not been active since early term or whom I was not able to find any posts for, these characters may not end up in the awards category if more recent posts are not seen).
Though Lena's been rather inactive, Olivier's authors are still around but we just have not been able to get together to write a post. Is it okay if both twins are still technically at Sonora? Just not eligible for winning a category?
P.s. We will try and get a post for Olivier up soon.

They will be listed in the student group but only those who are actively posting will be in the awards category unless there is an overwhelming vote for that particular character for a certain category that no other character seems to fit within.
If you are the head of a club (that has been posted at least once), can you please list the club below and have the members sign up? I need the information for the club section of the yearbook.
Thank you!

Less than 2 weeks to have these completed for me. I haven't received any as of yet. Please help me complete the awards portion of the yearbook by completing these. Thank you!
In the cases where their just aren't enough of one particular gender for the awards, I am willing to choose 2 of the same gender for each award. It wouldn't make sense to pick Chaslyn for all of them if that isn't her personality.
Just to check... I assumed the match had finished on Sunday as this was two weeks after the start date (the usual length of matches) but people seem to still be posting. Can you confirm when the match ended/will end if it hasn't?
Yes, the match ended officially on Sunday so only the posts to Sunday count. Thanks for the fervent posting everyone and sorry I didn't put up a reminder! Things have been hectic in RL. Seeker email has been sent.
