40 -- Author's First And Last Name Start With The Same Letter

For prompt forty, we’re looking for an author whose first and last names start with the same letter of the alphabet. (For example, Rick Riordan’s first and last names both start with the letter “R.”)

Some authors may write under a shortened form of their first name or with a nickname. (For example: the author’s full, legal name might be “Elizabeth,” but the author could choose to write under “Beth” or “Liz.”) You can decide whether to use the full form of their legal first name or their shortened nickname when deciding if their first and last names start with the same letter.

If an author uses a pseudonym with shared first and last name letters, you can use them for this prompt regardless of their legal name.

Similarly, if an author’s legal name shares the same letter but they use an alternative pseudonym for writing, you can use their legal name for this prompt.

An author may be published under more than two names. (Example: F. Scott Fitzgerald) As long as their first and last name start with the same letter, second names or middle names do not have to start with the same letter.
