Sarah is correct :) You can pick your word anytime between now and the start of the challenge, but you can only pick one word.
I have a question: can I use the first letter of any word of the title to spell my spooky word?

I've noted everyone's words on the SSW main page :)
@Tatian we've decided that it can only be the first letter of the title. It's too easy if we let you use any letter. However, if the title starts with "A" or "The" then you may use either the "A" or the "T" OR you can use the first letter of the word that comes after those. :)
@Jalyn, thanks for clearing that up! I might change my word, though, if that's allowed.
Tatiana wrote: "@Jalyn, thanks for clearing that up! I might change my word, though, if that's allowed."That's fine :) Just post it in this thread so that I can change your word in the other thread.

Just found some books that fit the word choice and the rule, so I won't be changing it :)

Can we pick a word that someone else has picked?
If so my word will be Supernatural

I have 4 possibilities, I just got to look to see if I can get the books with those letters.

Yes, that's fine. I'll add your pick to the list :)

This topic has been frozen by the moderator. No new comments can be posted.
For this part of the challenge you have to spell out any Halloween related word with the books you are reading. You get to pick whatever Halloween word that you would like, which means that you get to pick the length of this challenge! HOWEVER, you can only spell a word once, so choose wisely! :)
Word examples: Halloween, Candy, Ghost, Pumpkin, etc.
Rules
You may only use the first letter of the first word in the title. The only exception to this is if the title starts with either "A" or "The." If they title starts with either of those words then you may use the letters "A" or the letter "T" OR you may use the first letter of the word that comes after those words. For example, if the title is The Diviners then you may use the "T" in "The" or the "D" in "Diviners."
