and we're off!!

Prom Nights is officially finished! (phew.) the link is in the side bar. have fun with it!

meanwhile, back in Victoria's study...
I am working hard (not. actually it's a lot of fun) on A Rowling Riddle, which is going to be VVEEEERRRYYY LOOOOOOOONG. (because there's 7 very loooong books. and three extra books. and a gillion websites. yeah. that's a lot.) so naturally it will be a verrrrrryyyy lllloooooonnnnggg time until it's done.

I'm also having "Maximum Ride—the Angel Experiment" riddle tested (aka make sure I've not made any huge mistakes or spelling errors) at the moment. it'll probably be the next one out.
I am now debating between starting the "Olympian"series or "Mortal Instruments".

so if you have any input (or suggestions,) check out the forum on this site and leave a comment there.
thx, and have fun.

Until next time,

Just because a book is written by best selling authors doesn’t mean the authors are good…

2009-06-02T12:19:00.001-07:00

so I’m currently working on:

Prom Nights
A Rowling Riddle (the works of JK Rowling)
Maximum Ride (James Patterson)

I have to say, the second two are going fabulous, the first….eh, not so much. the stories in PN were disappointingly dull, but i’ve gotten about 50 questions so far. i hope to have it done by the end of this week, so i can work on the other two.

as far as Maximum Ride, it was recommended to me by “Pickle5” and i put it on the back burner. then later i found one of the books at the library (my second home, of course) and COMPLETELY fell in love with the series. i now own all the books, (Waldenbooks is my third home ;) and that riddle is great. i recommend that series to any twilight lover out there—it was fantabulous.

of course, we all know what a big deal Harry Potter is. i’d been asked to do that riddle by a few people, so i said “eh, i’ll give Harry three pages of my time to capture my attention.” (he had me in about one half.)

so those riddles are on the way. that’ll keep me busy for a while. if anyone has any other suggestions for other riddles, please drop a note in the forum on my home page.

Until next time,
~Victoria

so it's been a long month...

2009-05-15T13:34:00.001-07:00

between buying a second business, finishing pre-calculus and french @ college, and trying to get my sanity back (or some of it) i'm about halfway done with "prom nights" riddle. again, i'm working on a second one as well, and i'm not NEARLY halfway done... it's gonna be a long one, and hopefully popular.

~V

so i've got a good start

2009-05-05T18:30:00.001-07:00

the "Prom Nights from Hell" riddle is goin', but please keep in mind that this week is final exams, and this means that friday will be my first day of vacation (= more time to work on this baby--or rather, these babies)...

i've put up a list of books in the forum on my home page for you to vote on which riddle is next... the polls don't work very well for me. thx!

prom nights and mysety riddles

2009-04-25T15:58:00.000-07:00

I've ordered "Prom Nights from Hell," it should be here in less than a week.

meanwhile i've been working on the long second riddle (and a shorter third!) the second has over 80 questions so far, and i'm almost halfway done reading. so it'll be pretty long, and, hopefully, (because of the large fan-base) pretty big.

the third is a classic, (that's my only hint) and it's shorter, but keep in mind that it may take a while to get these out: however, i've only got two more weeks of school left, so summertime will be a relief!

~V

OK- we're off to a good start

2009-04-18T17:31:00.001-07:00

two things:

1)I've found the book- now i've got to buy it (i get paid on Tuesday). so "Prom Nights from Hell" will be soon.

2) i've started working on the second riddle, it will probably take some time, as i want it to be worth doing. I just finished the questions for the first book in the series (it's a bit longer than twilight). i have no idea how long it will be, but it might be 150-300 questions. (rough guess. i may be totally off.) 

do you have a guess as to what it might be? post your ideas on the forum ;)

until next time,
~Victoria

some requests i've gotten

2009-04-14T15:48:00.000-07:00

I've gotten requests for
*Harry Potter
*Jane Austen
*Wuthering Heights
*Maximum Ride

I'll probably do one of the ones on the poll on the home page first, but maybe I'll do these later? we'll see. the voting deadline is on Thursday. Actually I haven't read any of these, but if i get a bunch of votes, I might go for it!

~V

Next riddle??

2009-04-12T13:22:00.000-07:00

so far i have close ties between "the hunger games", "prom nights from hell", and "uglies".

the hunger games has two more books coming out soon, so i'll probably wait a while before doing that one (unless y'all want it NOW, of course.) i've also been asked to do "Maximum Ride," which is a series and means a longer riddle, around 150-200 questions max. i'll probably wait until the twilight riddle has died down a bit (it's still kickin') and after the host gets more response (i've only got two of y'all there now! c'mon, guys!!)

meanwhile, i'm working on designing some different website designs and layouts- so if anyone wants a web-design.... let me know
also, i'm a pro at webs.com. i can set up a site in minutes (literally) so if anyone wants help with a website, drop me an e-mail.

until next time,
~V

3, 2, 1-

2009-04-09T21:01:00.001-07:00

and it's out!

www.vic-thehost-riddle.webs.com

have fun, happy riddling!
~V

hu... that was fast

2009-04-09T17:10:00.000-07:00

well... i just finished "the host" riddle. wow. fast.

(compared to the four months it took for the twilight riddle)

anyway. it'll be a few more days until i get it open, but have no fear, i'm thinking y'all will be busy riddling this weekend!

fabulous!

~V

off to a good start. i love spring break.

2009-04-05T18:45:00.001-07:00

I've started "the host" riddle and i've gotten about 20 questions so far. i'm estimating about 60 to 70 questions in the end riddle. (there will, obviously, be less than the twilight riddle, since i'm dealing with one book rather than four books, an unprinted manuscript, multiple fan sites, and extras on the author's home page...)
don't get your hopes up (i'm trying not to get mine up) but i might have this one done a lot sooner than i thought... like, by the end of the week. we'll see.

~V

well i got the book...

2009-04-03T16:27:00.000-07:00

now i'm re-reading it (for the n-th time) and starting questions.

until next time,
~V

and the next riddle shall be...

2009-04-03T10:33:00.001-07:00

I received a coupon for 50% off a best seller from borders. the #2 best seller? it's the same one that almost everyone voted for (70% vote- granted there were only ten people who voted, but still.)

The Host.

the host is next, it will take a while (twilight took over four months...) but when it's done, i'll send out an e-mail blast and let you know.

I'm hoping to get a better forum (one easier to navigate) than last time. meanwhile, send the link of the twilight riddle to all your friends! let's fill up that Hall of Fame. (we're up to 14 people now! fabulous!)

until next time,
~victoria

Well, the Twilight riddle was a HUGE success.

2009-04-02T19:10:00.000-07:00

I don't know if you guys know, but my stats went from a constant zero to 1977 in two days. that's amazing... TWILIGHT LEXICON, I LOVE YOU.

as far as which riddle to do next, though the votes are leaning towards "the host"... but i will wait a while before starting them. i will eventually do the others as well, though i wanted to know which to start on first...

as far as "the host," does anyone know about a good fan site for it? we have the Lex for twilight, i'm wondering if there's an "origin" or something for wanderer. do comment if you know of one.

new riddles coming soon!
