A/N: This is the end of the author section, and two reasons why Shakespeare is not here:

1. He tends to overshadow a lot of people.

2. He is a Playwright. Just saying.

Don't get me wrong, he is one of the greats, and by far in my top ten, but I just think there are other equally great, despite different eras, authors who can actually be called an 'author'.

Anyway, this is the second longest entry to Poe, and next up is a Poem by moi.
