BLANKO

Welcome to our newest brain teaser

The rules are simple:

The Challenger posts either a title or the name of an author, not both. One letter is supplied. More information may be given, but isn't required.

Example:

Title of Book: three words, a prize winning novel:

___ ___ ___ ___ ___ T __ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___

What is it?

The Contestants guess--the title (or author) if they can, or a letter. One guess between appearances of the Challenger for each contestant.

At the end of the day, or more often if the Challenger wants, the Challenger will add one or more of the letters the Contestants have suggested, everywhere it appears. (Note that the original supplied letter might also appear elsewhere.)

The winner becomes the new Challenger.

Good Luck !!

and the Winner is Jane
