I wouldn't say I'm homesick, but I have been thinking about Newfoundland authors this past week. Therefore, I bring you this latest Saturday Word Play. On the left you'll find a Newfoundland author and on the right you'll find a book written by him/her. However, I've removed all the letters the author has in common with their title. For instance, if it was:Percy Janes- House of Hate
the clue would look like this:
Prcy Jns- Hous of Ht
since the author shared the letters "e" and "a" with the title. Which of these can you identify?
As always, feel free to do all 10 at home, but only answer one in the comment section. That way, 10 people will have the chance to play along.

I really liked this one too, though not quite as much as "The Wreckage".
This is off topic. I heard that you are hosting a weekly short story chat. I would like to join.
Also, I found about 40 Candadian 40 Canadian books on Munsey's and I will get to one of them for your Canadian Challenge as soon as I am done reading some library books that are due in a few days. Judy/Intergalactic Bookworm.

I haven't read this but everybody else had already gotten the ones I have read. Newfoundland does seem to inspire lots of great writing. Is it the isolation?
This is much harder than it looks, particularly as everyone already has the only ones I could conceivably have guessed.
My brain hurts.
Great idea, though.
