Everyone has gotten a chance to read articles by the IU staff, but how did you do at picking their writing out of a lineup?
We posted five lines from five books by five different authors on the Indies Unlimited staff and asked you to match the correct line with the correct author. If you haven’t had a chance to play, here is the link to the original article before you peek at the answers below the fold. You’re not peeking below the fold are you? I thought I felt a draft.
The authors are next to the lines from their own books. Congratulations to Krista Tibbs who not only correctly guessed which line came from which author, but also the books from which the lines came. So, either she’s read all these and has an eidetic memory, or she has major evil Google-fu skills. Either way, that’s hot!
