I like word games and this is one we haven’t tried. I’ll give you an author and you make as many words as you can using the letters of her name. No proper words, names or abbreviations. Make as many words as you can of 4 or more letters – I’ll be awarding points on a curve with the person who submits the most getting 100. Let’s start with an author who has only penned one novel, but really why risk messing with perfection by writing another?
You have until noon Saturday to submit your answers as a comment. Comment will be hidden until I post the answers. No Googling!
This round lasts til the end of March and the person with the most points will win a B&N gift card (total $ based on # of total participants, so please play) and a randomly selected participant will win a fun prize from me.
Have fun and Good Luck!
