And don't forget "10" with Bo Derek and Dudley Moore.. 😁 People of a certain age... us oldies.. will remember the iconic shot of Bo and her braids running slomo down the beach..

Perhaps an Eager Beaver who enjoys a beverage whilst waiting for TTX to begin.. 😁

Mothman is defeated!

Back to Greek monsters with CENTAURS

Hello!

Oh my. TTX has a nice ring to it.

What do we all think will be the theme this year?

How cool, to have your own monster. I had to look it up, interesting.

Thanks Keely.

Here is the explanation for one of the tasks on Jersey Devil already asked and answered..

for tasks like "LEEDS in title" do you want the word whole and intact or the letters in order, or just all the letters present? There was one task that specified but most don't...

Answer - Letters present.

Bloody Mary has been defeated!

New Monster is Asian - Jorogumo

I know... Love the Loch Ness Monster, the 800 pager not so much. I do have one to start but not till next month if the spot is still vacant then.

Keely wrote: "A string of bad luck has put me behind my timeframe for finishing my 800+ page book. I should now have it done next week sometime."

No problem Keely. Hope things improve for you, we're slowly getting through those monsters..

The Rat King has been defeated... Yay..

Our new monster is LOCH NESS MONSTER -

Can you believe it - we need another 800+ book. I haven't read one yet so I'll start looking.

Vicky wrote: "I finished The Spanish Love Deception today, how do we feel about using it for both hands of the same person on the cover? One of her hands is partially hidden behind the D, but par..."

I think that would be fine. There are two pairs of hands on the cover, the guys hands too, one shown and one in his pocket. 😊

Santu Sakai is defeated.

I have spun for two of the new Urban Legends monsters to get us back to 5 monsters in play.

New monsters are Rat King and Bloody Mary.

And thanks Vicky for keeping the spreadsheet up to date!

Monster Mashers...

We have new Monsters to defeat. Urban Legends.. Woo Hoo.

Oooh. So exciting. Thanks Mods!

Natasha wrote: "I added the read date to my book on the spreadsheet so Scylla is now defeated."

Great Natasha. As the last vanquisher of Scylla you can spin for a new monster if you'd like.

Vicky wrote: "I'm asking in the Q&A thread for clarification on "Letters KL in title" - if they don't have to be consecutive I just finished A Curse So Dark and Lonely!

I penciled it in to the s..."

I think it will be fine Vicky but no harm in double checking. Finding a consecutive KL would be nearly impossible. 😁

Keely wrote: "I started my 800+ page book last night. I'm working a lot in the next week or so, so I'm not sure that I will make quick progress on it. I'm still aiming to get it done by mid-March though."

No worries, Keely. Just work your way through it.

I think the Mods are working on some new monster categories.. so that's exciting.

Babi is defeated.

New monster is - Santu Sakai

Jenny wrote: "Lisa, this is just a draft. Can you think of any Human monsters that should be added?"

Mmmm. Maybe Norman Bates from Psycho. Dexter Morgan from Dexter. Some Bond villains.. Dr No, Jaws... Darth Vader from Star Wars.. Jack Torrance from The Shining. Freddy Kruger from Nightmare on Elm Street. Michael Myers from Halloween.

Popping in from The Monster Mashers!

That's amazing Jenny. Can't wait to defeat these monsters. Thank U.
