If Ken J wasn't author #6, may I change my guess for him to be author #2? (I was vacillating between those two hints for him.)

Yes, 14 is me! Gamer for life! (Currently playing Zelda Breath of the Wild on our Switch.) That one may have been a give-away, since I wrote a story about Lois and Clark as Warcraft players.

I remember reading somewhere about your love for Zelda. Isn't that where your name also came from? No, my name is from Xena. Her most trusted weapon was a round, frisbee like, razer sharp disc she could throw - the chakram. When I signed up for fanfiction.net many years ago, I was writing Xena fics and it was less confusing to just carry the same name over.

Joy, Lynn Lynn you can change your guesses as many times as you like. Each author will come in and either confirm or deny the guesses.

Thanks CarrieRene. I do love the movies, but this was not me. I would love to learn how to work a loom, but for now knitting is my focus.

A writer's job is to think of new plots and create characters who stay with you long after the final page has been read. If that mission is accomplished than we have done what we set out to do, which is to entertain and hopefully educate.

Guessing time... Author 5 = KenJ Author 11 = Lynn Author 9 = ...Millefeuilles? I'm not brave enough to keep guessing. These are too vague! When you're coming up with your own clues you think you're being clever, but then reading them in a list I'm like geesh, I can't even place my own sometimes. Def wanna know who author 7 is... and if they can tell me how to incorporate said martial arts skills into scenes more fluidly... nudge

Mouserocks, although I definitely do prefer fiction to have happy endings, I'm not author #11. Care to try again? Joy, Lynn
