NBRC 26 Alphabet 14: Mythical Creatures: A to Z (Spell-it-Out)

[Lizz (Beer, Books and Boos)]

I am starting over

[Lisa Kay]

Welcome to the challenge, Laura, Barbara, Lizz, & Aleksandra!!!!

[Rachel]

Barbara- I like that you choose all reptilian creatures. Really cool!

I'm loving being able to read the descriptions that everyone has posted. I have always liked reading about myths. Especially those that include animals. So interesting!!

[Gayle]

Lisa Kay wrote: "Option #2B – Added, by popular demand: Two for One. Read at the lower level of 25 books; however, they must have two mythical creatures within the storyline! Again, clearly indicate which two ..."

WooHoo!!!!!

[Robin (Saturndoo)]

Interesting!!! Mythical creatures are so far out of my norm but this would be a good way for me to maybe broaden my horizons : ) I am not sure which path I will take but count me in and I will examine this further!!!

[Robin (Saturndoo)]

Option #2A – Find 50 books about mythical creatures. The books must feature the creature pretty prominently in the storyline. Clearly indicate which creature is featured in your listing. No repeat creatures, of the ones you are choosing. (Repeats can be in the story, but not be the reason you are choosing the book. In otherwords, you can NOT choose vampire twice; nevertheless, they CAN appear in every book you select.) Expand your mythical knowledge. Why not be adventurous and choose a creature you’ve never read about before? Refer to Listopia for further help.

Books Read:4/50

Great, Robin! Welcome to the challenge. I'm not real familiar with mythical creatures either. Should be fun.

Huh. Didn't even notice that.

Lol. Wellll, I can't take all the credit. She said that was what she had done in her first post. ;)

[Lisa Kay]

Rachel wrote: "She said that was what she had done in her first post. ;)"

LOL! I still didn't notice. I was just seeing all the names in bold and the definitions; though I did think she had a lot of dragons!

[Rachel]

Hehehe. I would like to think that I would have noticed it on my own since I read all of them, but my brain usually doesn't look for things like that unless I know I'm supposed to be. Good going on noticing all the dragons. Probably better than I would've done. Nevertheless, cool idea!

[Dragana]

I love the idea, and as a fantasy fan I can not pass this challenge. :)
I'm gonna choose option #2A. List may change if I accidentally stumble on some other creature while reading a book... :)

Neat, Angie!

[Lisa Kay]

Saw this in the GoodReads Feedback Group... and it works. Just tried it on Post #85.

Someone in one of the groups I'm in accidentally found a sort of work around to force the books to work horizontal until they fix the problem. Here's her post...

"I noticed by accident that if I put an HTML code in the line above the book covers, it displays them in a row again. You can use the code for bold or italics etc. And it seems you only need the opening tag like this < i > (omit the spaces). It does not work if you put it in the same line with the first cover. It has to be above. And I have no idea why this works. If you want you can put the closing tag after the last book cover. It still works and might prevent screwing up your post once they fixed the problem. Just use < / i > without the spaces."

Good luck! Hope they can fix the problem soon.
