Trish H's Thank Goodness Spring is Coming Challenge

[Trish, Annular Mod]

First time through, I'm going to try to do the whole thing using "Phrase contains the first letter of the title", but if it starts with A, An or The, I'm going to make sure both that letter and the next one work.

If I manage that, I may do it again with Author. Cover, I think, could be very tricky.
