Pin the Phrase on the Author – Round 2 Answers

 

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?

Pin the Phrase on the Author (Round 2)

Everyone has gotten a chance to read articles by the IU staff, but could you pick their writing out of a lineup?

Below, you will see lines excerpted from the books of five Indies Unlimited authors. Can you tell which author wrote which line? Bonus points if you also know the book from which the line comes!

Below and to the left are pictures of the IU authors and next to each, a line from a book. The authors are not next to the lines from their own books. Or are they? See if you can mix and match the author with the line. Put your guesses in the comment section below (1. author name, 2. author name, etc.). The winner gets bragging rights.

Answers will be posted at 2 PM Pacific Time on Sunday, April 22. Good luck!

  3. “I drove through layers of absence.”
  4. “The sense of loss I felt had faded into the back of my heart, tucked into the place where those things best left unexamined dwelt.”
 Yvonne Hertzberger 5. “The darkness deepened until I was on the precipice of a hideous void.”

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!
