I did a version of this game with Newfoundland and Labradorian authors a while back (there are still 3 left if you want to go try.) Basically, all I've done is take away all the letters that an author has in common with his/her title. For instance, if I gave you
Cr Rdp- Shlf Mn
You may be able to identify Corey Redekop- Shelf Monkey.
I should note that the authors I've chosen may not always be associated with Manitoba but at some point all of them have called Manitoba home.
As always, feel free to answer all ten at home, but only answer in the comment section. That way, nine people will have a chance to play along.

And I know the others, but I'll abide by your rules and let others play.
# 5: Andrew Davidson, The Gargoyle
#6 Carol Shields The Stone Diaries
#2 Miriam Toewes - A Complicated Kindness (a brilliant book!)
Well, for #1 I want to say:
Margaret Laurence ~ The Stone Angel
but the g's are still there so...?
Well done everyone! What "g"s Wanda, I don't see any "g"s. ;)
I'd suck as an editor. You have no idea how many times I checked these over for letter I missed.
#7 is David Bergen The Time In Between
You people get up too early (or at least check your email early)!
#3 Adele Wiseman - The Sacrifice
Oh sure, the easy ones are already taken! What time do you people get up on the weekend?
I'll have to work on this a bit more.
lol!
John: The "g's" were a big help, not sure that I would have got it otherwise...
Barbara: I didn't get up 'til 8:30 (which is sleeping in for me; week-day alarm goes off at 5:30) and didn't hit the computer 'til 10AM. Living on the East Coast though (NS), the sun shines on us 3 to 4 hours before our good neighbours out West. ;)
