I had a hard time coming up with a question, and I didn't really my heart in it anyway, so I just did one about Louisa May Alcott, hoping Dorry would guess it right, but she ruined it by guessing Nathaniel Hawthorne. ๐๐คฃ
Here's the next quiz question:Name the author who used the following pen names: Caelia Shortface, Martha Careful, Silence Dogood, Anthony Afterwit and Busy Body.
Good grief! Was this author male or female?
