Allyson wrote: "Well, at least you didn't cheat!!😂😂 But sorry, no banana!"

LOL! Well, can I guess again?

[Emma | meadowroselibrary]

I'm officially in the corner

[Lily Rose]

Emma wrote: "I'm officially in the corner"

Haha! Did you cheat again!?

[Lily Rose]

If I'm allowed to guess again, I would say either Longfellow or Noah Webster. If I'm not allowed to guess again, I will pretend I said nothing. And go to the corner with Emma.

[Emma | meadowroselibrary]

Lol! I'm in the corner because yes, I cheated, because I asked Allyson to tell me the answer. But, no worries, I won't say a peep! (especially because I don't even remember the guys name...)

[Allyson]

I think you're aloud to guess as much as you want, I could be wrong though. Wrong again!😁 Both times!

🤣Weren't you in the corner for cheating yesterday?

Arg! Well, I'll just go down the list until I get it right! Nathaniel Hawthorn?

[Joanna]

I don't know who it was but I know who it wasn't, and it weren't Hawthorne! 😂

[Joanna]

So it has to be someone whose works weren't published during his lifetime...I just can't think of anyone! Can you give any hints, Allyson? 😋

🤣Weren't you in the corner for cheating yesterday?"

No, I was the one who did the question. 😅

[Allyson]

Thank you Meg, reserve Hawthorne's honor.😉 He was proud to publish his works!

[Allyson]

Hmm, I think he wrote mostly poetry

[Allyson]

If not only poetry, I don't want to say that positively though.

[Joanna]

Emma wrote: No, I was the one who did the question. 😅"

Sorry Emma, she must have slept through most of yesterday's kerfuffle! 🤭 (And I'm going to be in big trouble when she see this!) 🤣

[Joanna]

Allyson wrote: "If not only poetry, I don't want to say that positively though."

A very random guess...Robert Frost?

[Emma | meadowroselibrary]

Meg wrote: "Emma wrote: No, I was the one who did the question. 😅"

Haha!! Yes that was some Kerfuffle for sure! 🤣🤣 I'll say from experience, if I were you I'd either just go and hide while you can, or have a nice hard book for protection. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤭

Oh I'll be alright...I'm taller and stronger! 🤭🤣

[Allyson]

So is Emma but that doesn't always help her.😉 It's not Robert Frost. Just let me know when you give up. I hope I didn't pick someone y'all don't even know!!

[Lily Rose]

Yes, Meg, you are in trouble. Brace yourself, because it may come when you're least expecting it! 🎯

[Ruth]

Allyson,
😲--Your brain teaser is driving me nuts.
I remember reading this last month.

[Ruth]

Hannah,
Where are you?🔭👀

Ruth wrote: "Hannah,

Dearest Ruth, to keep out of trouble I am remaining silent! Hahaha!! Also, I don't know how to google this and therefore don't know the answer!

[Hannah]

Shot in the dark - Poe??

Is it an author that's not often heard of?

[Hannah]

Washington Irving?????

Aww!! Thank you!!!

Allyson, you've really stumped me on this one! And I don't even have the satisfaction of using google! You are a trivia asking master!

[Hannah]

Keets?

[Hannah]

Oh no wait, he's English.

[Ruth]

Check list
1.Emma- Not Frost (may know but not a peep)
2. Dorothy- Longfellow, Webster or Hawthorne, etc.
3. Meg- not Hawthorne (still stuck on kerfuffle)
4. Hannah- Poe or Irving
5. Ruth- (Pending)

And no clue from Allyson.

Haven't the faintest idea why!!

[Hannah]

BUT WHOEVER THIS AUTHOR'S FAMILY WAS, THEY SURE DIDN'T LISTEN VERY WELL!!!

[Allyson]

They did actually, it wasn't until two hundred years later that Thomas Johnson found his works in Yale University and published them.

[Emma | meadowroselibrary]

Y'all are cracking me up!!! 😂😂😂

[Allyson]

Do you want me to tell you?

[Joanna]

Now we're having another kerfuffle!! 🤣

[Emma | meadowroselibrary]

I KNOW!!! I can announce the answer!!!!

[Allyson]

Oh no you don't!!!

[Joanna]

Hannah wrote: "BUT WHOEVER THIS AUTHOR'S FAMILY WAS, THEY SURE DIDN'T LISTEN VERY WELL!!!"

It would sure be a difficult decision to make, supposing that one felt his works were worthy of publication and maybe the author himself didn't realize their own merits.

[Joanna]

Emma wrote: "I KNOW!!! I can announce the answer!!!!"

Please Amma, please!!! The suspense is killing me! 😂

[Allyson]

You want to know?

[Joanna]

Allyson wrote: "They did actually, it wasn't until two hundred years later that Thomas Johnson found his works in Yale University and published them."

Oh wait, I just saw this!! Now can I google Thomas Johnson?

[Allyson]

I don't know where that'll get you. I can just tell you and save you the trouble I just want to make sure you're fully stumped.

[Allyson]

[Joanna]

[Allyson]
