queenmomcat · February 2016

Back again! so it was an author....hmmm

queenmomcat · February 2016

Quick review, to make sure I've got it right:

Four word quote, Behavior/character trait. Not religious. Written, but not in newspaper.

Author/writer, female, no longer alive. Not poet or political.

If we figure out who "said" it, then chances are we'll figure out the quote.

11. Was she an American?

queenmomcat · February 2016

11. Primarily known today as fiction or nonfiction writer?

ceanna · February 2016

queen, yes, pretty close but I need to clarify that the quote is not about a character trait but demonstrates a character trait. In answer to #9b, I said it originally was in print, but, HINT, most would not remember from print form.

ceanna · February 2016

12. Known for fiction.

Is there such a word as quotetress? I don't know what to call a female who originated something quoteable!!! LOL!!
