Barbara ★ Okay here's what I came up with. Feel free to use it or not depending on what everyone else comes up with.

During the masquerade ball at the Notorious Nineteen Bar and Grill in The Kingdom of Nebraska, Dorothy, the Changeling steps outside for a breath of fresh air. Out of the blue, a tornado strikes as the Raven Calls causing Dorothy to be Hit by a Farm. Even with this disaster, The Calling for the removal of Masques at Fall of Night is unexpected on this hottest of Hot Island Nights in the Hunting Ground of the The Coven. Dorothy didn't Cry Wolf at feeling Hunted since she was unconscious.

Hina (hinaj) BONUS! BONUS! BONUS! BONUS! BONUS! BONUS! BONUS! BONUS!

TurtleCollector from the Hobbit team sugested it, and we loved the idea. So, here's the mod's trick or treat for you:

Win another 5 BAP, by writing a story (simmilar to the final task) with ALL the 15 books read in the event#2


This bonus task doesn't override the final one - is an extra.

But there are certain things to fix...Notorious Nineteen was never used in the 15 books finished and if we use a book from one of the task, we have to use all the books from the task, and from task 4 you only used 2 books.

They have added another bonus task, for another 5 BAP's if we use all the books....if you are able to add the two missing books in your story...I think you already have the bonus part done. And we can keep working on another story or since you are so good at this, can come up with another story. What do you think?


message 107: by Barbara ★ (last edited Oct 15, 2013 09:30AM) (new)

Barbara ★ How about this? used all 15 books.

During the masquerade ball at the Oliver's Hunger Bar and Grill in The Kingdom of Nebraska, Aunt Dimity and the Duke are bored with events and decide to peruse the dictionary. When they get to R is for Ricochet, Dorothy Dimity, the Changeling steps outside for a breath of fresh air. Out of the blue, a tornado strikes as the Raven Calls causing Aunt Dimity to be Hit by a Farm.

On A Night Like This, The Calling for the removal of masks at Fall of Night is unexpected on this hottest of Hot Island Nights in the Hunting Ground of the The Coven. Dorothy didn't Cry Wolf at feeling Hunted since she was unconscious.

Looks good Barbara, but we never used masques as a book, but you can easily change that but other than that I still like it alot!


message 109: by Barbara ★ (new)

Barbara ★ I took masques out and used Masks since it was a masquerade ball.

yup that works. Do you have another one to finish up the final task, or JoLene and I can do it.

JoLene (trvl2mtns) OK, I re-arranged a few things.....does this work?
