As a rule, I never refer to place
as a room in the house.
You went by Emma's assumption.

Pamela | 2209 comments I just joined this group today, so I hope I'm doing this right!
If the answer is a general location, it was written at Orchard House. If it should be more specific, I don't know, but would guess at a desk? Now I'm curious!

P.S....I like this group already!

Thanks, Emma! I'm glad you suggested it!


message 1735: by Allyson (new)

Allyson Jamison | 170 comments WELCOME Pamela!!!😀 Emma was just saying at lunch that you would enjoy this group and I agreed! I didn't know for sure if she was going to invite you or not so I was planning to but I guess she beat me to it!!😂 So, that was the previous question and the answer was Massachusetts (Orchard House being the more precise answer😂). I got it right so I recently posted the question who was "the father of American literature?".

🙋Hi Pamela,
Welcome to the group,
we're glad to have you join us.

Generally place is a location,
residence, city, state, etc.
Only Emma thought of room,
which sent the quiz round into
a tail spin. 😄

You thought of it, I agreed. I probably never would have thought of it if you hadn't put the thought in my head!

I was not MIA, btw, I was passed out on the bed. (For about half an hour.) My guess is Nathaniel Hawthorne. (Didn't Meg ask this question a little while back? It sounds familiar. And no, Ruthie, that doesn't mean you can change the question!)

Meaning, void this one and all our answers, and create a newer, harder one.
