Hey guys! Before you panic, don't worry! We'll be posting weekly check-ins over here on skinsbang_vent, but they are not mandatory, and you are not expected to have x number of words or to participate in every post. We just thought they'd be a good way for everyone to keep in touch, to see how we're all progressing, and to provide feedback where needed ( Read more... )
