Yes.

Thanks for asking -- I am fairly certain that the task could be worded more clearly, but haven't yet discovered how."

Thanks.

Do alternate time lines count as spanning over 100 years?

Thank you.

Samantha Shannon is 24 yrs old. One of the Goodreads genres for The Mime Order is YA but when I checked BPL it looks like it is shelved as "Fic Shannon" so does this mean that I can claim style points for this book?

So, the author Courtney Milan is the pseudonym for Heidi Bond. She was born in 1976 but the only thing that I can find that actually states her age is on this site (it appears to be something she wrote while in grad school at UC Berkley). Is this enough to document her birth year?
