Any date...


I still have absolutely no clue about what book could be meant...

I found the letter very fast yesterday, but it took me a long time this day. But I still haven't got a clue about the booktitle. The way my brain works, I probably need clues the solve the title after I have collected all the letters.

If you found the letter for Day 5 (Dec 4th) then you already know the answer to that question!

I'm out. Christmas time, way too much to do, slower Internet connection, no time to ferret thru the forum looking for this. Have fun everybody, but I'm no longer participating. I actually found the contest rather discouraging.

You probably missed the Q - I think a lot of people missed that one.

I saw the Q. I must have it written down here somewhere. There are so many little bits of paper beside my PC and if one drops to the floor the doggie soon rips it to shreads.

Ravenne, the doggie ate one of my letters. I don't think that excuse is going to help me win this contest.

I"m sorry you feel that way, xianfox. I"m finding it a fun thing to do.........but yes, a fast internet connection is vital.

I felt the same way about RobertB's contest......I refuse to go near facebook, or anything like it.
