Novelist Hemingway (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ernest

'novelist hemingway' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ernest that I've seen before include "chap" , "American writer . . . . . . Hemingway" , "fellow" , "The boy sounds serious" , "Resent (anag) - man" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, the Universal, The Telegraph, the Newsday.com and the King Feature Syndicate.
