His real name is samuel langhorne clemens but his pen name is mark twain. He loves cats. He was a author when he was young to. He worked as a miner also. Irony is the use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of its literal meaning. Its like having it rain on your wedding day. Verne was an author and he became a very famous author too.
