Question

Which sentence is written correctly?

A. Greg Innis, author of the bestselling novel Gathering Clouds, will be signing books here tomorrow.

B. Although he was an Englishman, Henry Hudson captained the Dutch ship "Half Moon" on his search for the Northwest Passage.

C. Paula Hamilton has written many one-act plays, including the award-winning "Sworn Statement of a Troubled Child."

D. I was a bit envious of my friend Suzanne for having written Red Clouds, the winning entry in the poetry contest. 

I think the answer is A or D.

Answer 1

The correct answer is A. The appositive beginning with author and ending with clouds, is set off by two commas. B is wrong because a ship name should be italicized and C is wrong because a play title should be italicized. D is wrong because a poem title should be inside quotation marks.
