Da Rules:

1. The title of the book cited must have one word, at least, which is the same as a word in the previous title.

2. The repeated word in the new title must be other than an article ("a", "an", or "the").

3. The repeated word must be spelled exactly as the word was spelled in the previous title. E.g., "prune" is not the same word as "prunes", and "loyal" is not the same word as "loyalty."

4. The repeated word must be in the title as shown on the title page of the book--not, e.g., part of the series name unless such is part of the title as shown on the title page.

5. If you have read the book it would be informative that you so indicate and tell when you read it, if you can.

6. Try to use Touchstones. Put brackets around the title and double brackets around the author. If Touchstones don't work, try using an html link.

7. A hyphenated word is one word, not two: e.g., "thunder-clouds"; and if used must be repeated in full, not in part only.

Here is my play:

If no one can play on the words "bleak" and "midwinter" before 10:30, we should invoke the "six-hour rule," permitting the use of prepositions.
Never heard of that rule? That's one of them there unwritten rules which allow the flow of the game to continue.

Actually, there is no rule against the use of prepositions. As the rules stand only articles are unusable. I know there has been murmuring against some two letter words, but the rules do not forbid them--you will note a while back a one-letter word "I" was used, without any objection.
