THE CHALLENGE
TRIVIA
✔ 1. Shakespeare lived to 52. It is known that he was born in April 1564 and that he died on 23rd April 1616. We know that he was baptised on 26th April 1564 and scholars now believe that he was born on April 23rd. He therefore died on his fifty-second birthday, coinciding with St George’s Day.
✍ Read a book with the numbers 1, 4, 5 or 6 in the total number of pages -or- read a book published or set in April -or- read a book with a character named George or William: Hotter Than Hell edited by Kim Harrison (491 pages)
✔ 2. Shakespeare had seven siblings. They were: Joan; Margaret; Gilbert; Joan II; Anne; Richard and Edmund.
✍ Read the 7th book in a series -or- read a book with siblings as main protagonists -or- read a book whose author has one of the following first or last names: Joan, Margaret, Gilbert(s), Anne, Richard(s), Edmund(s). : How (Not) to Kiss a Were Bear by Elizabeth A. Reeves
✔ 3. Shakespeare married Anne Hathaway when he was 18. She was 26 and she was pregnant when they married. Their first child was born six months after the wedding. They had three children together – a son, Hamnet, who died in 1596, and two daughters, Susanna and Judith. His only granddaughter Elizabeth – daughter of Susanna – died childless. Shakespeare therefore has no descendants.
✍ Read a book with a 1, 2, 6 or 8 in the year it was first published -or- read a book where the protagonist is pregnant or has children -or- read a book whose author's first and last initials are in "ANNEHATHAWAY": Hex Appeal edited by P.N. Elrod (published 2012)
✔ 4. Unlike most artists of his time, Shakespeare died a very wealthy man with a large property portfolio. He was a brilliant businessman – forming a joint-stock company with his actors meaning he took a share in the company’s profits, as well as earning a fee for each play he wrote. He made several gifts to various people but left his property to his daughter, Susanna. The only mention of his wife in Shakespeare’s own will is: “I gyve unto my wief my second best bed with the furniture”. The “furniture” was the bedclothes for the bed.
✍ Read a book with a rich protagonist -or- read a book where a character inherits something -or- read a book with a bed on the cover: The Breeders by Katie French
✔ 5. Shakespeare was buried in the Holy Trinity Church, Stratford-upon-Avon. He put a curse on anyone daring to move his body from that final resting place. Though it was customary to dig up the bones from previous graves to make room for others, Shakespeare’s remains are still undisturbed.
✍ Read a book with graves, graveyard or bones on the cover -or- read a book with a curse in it -or- read a book where a funeral is part of the plot. Holidays Are Hell edited by Kim Harrison (graves on cover)
✔ 6. One of Shakespeare’s relatives on his mother’s side, William Arden, was arrested for plotting against Queen Elizabeth I, imprisoned in the Tower of London and executed.
✍ Read a book where a coup d'etat is a part of the plot -or- read a book where all the words of the title begin with a letter in "WILLIAMARDEN" (ignore a, an, the. 2 words minimum) -or- read a book where someone is imprisoned.: Ever After by Kim Harrison
✔ 7. During his life, Shakespeare wrote 37 plays and 154 sonnets! This means an average 1.5 plays a year since he first started writing in 1589. His last play The Two Noble Kinsmen is reckoned to have been written in 1613 when he was 49 years old. While he was writing the plays at such a pace he was also conducting a family life, a social life and a full business life, running an acting company and a theatre.
✍ Read a book where the protagonist has more than one profession -or- read a book whose author has written more than 30 books -or- read a book whose author is over 40 years old (they must be over 40 now, they could have written your book when younger). Night Broken by Patricia Briggs (born 1965 = 49 years old)
✔ 8. Shakespeare’s profession was acting. He is listed in documents of 1592, 1598 and 1603 as an actor. We know that he acted in a Ben Jonson play and also in his own plays but it’s thought that, as a very busy man, writing, managing the theatre and commuting between London and his home in Stratford where is family was, he didn’t undertake big parts. There is evidence that he played the ghost in Hamlet and Adam in As You Like It.
✍ Read a book whose main protagonist is an actor -or- read a book with an author or character called Adam -or- read a book with a ghost in it: Along Came A Demon by Linda Welch
✔ 9. In Elizabethan theatre circles it was common for writers to collaborate on writing plays. Towards the end of his career Shakespeare worked with other writers on plays that have been credited to those writers. Other writers also worked on plays that are credited to Shakespeare. We know for certain that Timon of Athens was a collaboration with Thomas Middleton; Pericles with George Wilkins; and The Two Noble Kinsmen with John Fletcher.
✍ Read a book which is a collaborative effort between two or more authors but is credited under one name (husband and wife writing as one author, for example) -or- read a book with a writer protagonist -or- read a book with an author whose initials are either TM, MT, GW, WG, JF or FJ: Clean Sweep by Ilona Andrews (husband & wife team)
✔ 10. Some scholars have maintained that Shakespeare did not write the Shakespeare plays, with at least fifty writers having been suggested as the “real” author. Notable of these were Francis Bacon, the Earl of Oxford and Christopher Marlowe.
✍ Read a book that is about a conspiracy theory -or- read a book marked Alternate History on its main GR page -or- read a book written by an author with a pen name (the pen name must be used to write your book!). From a Whisper to a Scream by Charles de Lint (first written under the pen name Samuel M. Key approved by Chaitra in this post)
✔ 11. According to the Oxford Dictionary of Quotations, Shakespeare wrote close to a tenth of the most quoted lines ever written or spoken in English. What’s more, according to the Literature Encyclopaedia, Shakespeare is the second most quoted English writer after the writers of the Bible.
✍ Read a book with what you consider quotable lines (bonus: let us know some of them!) -or- read a book marked "Religion" on its main GR page -or- read a book by a bestselling author. The Demigod Diaries by Rick Riordan
✔ 12. Almost four hundred years after Shakespeare’s death there are 157 million pages referring to him on Google. There are 132 million for God, 2.7 million for Elvis Presley, and coming up on Shakespeare’s heels, George W Bush with 14.7 million.
✍ Read a book with the number 1, 2, 4, 5 or 7 in the total number of pages -or- read a book where music is important to the plot -or- read a book marked "Politics" in its main GR page: Alien Stars by C.J. Cherryh, Joe Haldeman, Timothy Zahn (254 pages)
✔ 13. Suicide occurs an unlucky thirteen times in Shakespeare’s plays. It occurs in Romeo and Juliet where both Romeo and Juliet commit suicide, in Julius Caesar where both Cassius and Brutus die by consensual stabbing, as well as Brutus’ wife Portia.
✍ Read a book where a character either attempts or commits suicide -or- read a book with a "13" in the number of pages -or- read a book where a character is unlucky (in life, love, whatever): Into the Woods: Tales from the Hollows and Beyond by Kim Harrison (513 pages)
✔ 14. Some of Shakespeare’s signatures have survived on original documents. In none of them does he spell his name in what has become the standard way. He spells it Shakespe; Shakspe; Shakspere and Shakespear.
✍ Read a book with writing instruments (pen, ink, quill, pencil etc.) on the cover -or- read a book with a main character or author with an unconventional spelling (for example, Megyn for Megan) -or- read a book with the title beginning with S (The, A, An count, so the book has to strictly begin with an S): Skin Game by Jim Butcher
✔ 15. The American President Abraham Lincoln was a great lover of Shakespeare’s plays and frequently recited from them to his friends. His assassin, John Wilkes Booth was a famous Shakespearean actor.
✍ Read a book set during the US civil war -or- read a book where the main protagonist is a fond of the arts -or- read a book whose author's initials are in "JOHNWILKESBOOTH": White Witch, Black Curse by Kim Harrison
✔ 16. Although it was illegal to be a Catholic in Shakespeare’s lifetime, the Anglican Archdeacon, Richard Davies of Lichfield, who had known him wrote some time after Shakespeare’s death that he had been a Catholic.
✍ Read a banned book -or- read a book where a main character is religious -or- read a book where a character commits a crime they could be arrested for: Wild Justice by Kelley Armstrong (assassin)

✔ 18. It was illegal for women and girls to perform in the theatre in Shakespeare’s lifetime so all the female parts were written for boys. The text of some plays like Hamlet and Antony and Cleopatra refer to that. It was only much later, during the Restoration, that the first woman appeared on the English stage.
✍ Read a book with a woman protagonist -or- read a book where a boy dresses up as a girl for whatever reason -or- read a book set during the period of Restoration (late 1600s): Black Magic Sanction by Kim Harrison (Rachel is protagonist)

✍ Read a novel in verse, a play or a book of poetry -or- read a prose book where verses appear -or- read a book with an author called Richard or John. The Hobbit by J(John).R.R. Tolkien

✍ Read a book set in a planet other than the Earth -or- read a book whose author's first or last name is a moon of Uranus -or- read a book with a moon on the cover or the title. The Keepers by Donna Augustine
✔ 23. An outbreak of the plague in Europe resulted in all London theatres being closed between 1592 and 1594. As there was no demand for plays during this time, Shakespeare began to write poetry, completing his first batch of sonnets in 1593, aged 29.
✍ Read a book of poetry -or- read a book where disease is rampant -or- read a book with a medical professional main character: Dragonsblood by Todd J. McCaffrey
✔ 24. Shakespeare had close connections with King James I. The King made the actors of Shakespeare’s company ‘Grooms of Chamber’, in response to which Shakespeare changed the company’s name from the ‘Lord Chamberlain’s Men’ to the ‘King’s Men’.

✔ 25. Although Shakespeare is almost universally considered as one of the finest writers in the English language, his contemporaries were not always as impressed.
