but it's interesting what one can find.
Dozois reportedly dead already: https://twitter.com/MichaelSwanwick/status/1000849132230184961
I only know of him as an anthologist. He is a collaborator with George R.R. Martin on short story collections.

Is it a literary author or a popular author?

I was about 10 ft away from Ronnie at one point on Friday night, and while he looks as cadaverous as ever he was running around like a spring lamb.
Some excellent photos of him and the other wrinklies on this page, scroll down past the reviews.

Eh?
Feeding the birds was always a popular pastime when I was a child, whether it was ducks on the pond, city pigeons or a bird table in the garden.
Mind you, they tell us now that bread isn't very good for birds.

As Moses explains in the article linked by charon, Woody Allen is not in any sense her dad. Neither biological, adoptive, nor step.
Mia was married to Andre Previn when she adopted Soon-Yi.

Damn, I hadn't visited Mumsnet for at least a couple of weeks. I was doing so well.
Those threads that get picked up by the tabloids. How many do you reckon are actually started by tabloid hacks?
Or even by Mumsnet staff for the publicity?

Dunno. Wiki says "Kaeli-Shea Farrow, later known as Quincy Maureen Farrow" so perhaps she chose it herself.

He'll have been trying to find LFN's old avatars.

The names she comes up with should constitute child abuse
Think it's Quincy, actually.

And she has had her hair styled in a more flattering way.

For example, both married 14 year-old girls; both lived in Memphis; both toured the USA extensively (??); both died young and both experienced devout worship after their death. She explaines that the Jordanaires provided background vocals for Elvis and the Jordan River runs along the border between Jordan, the Palestinian West Bank, Israel and southwestern Syria, which isn't far from Egypt.
Yep, makes sense.

So, just for your personal convenience then?

Yes - every time I see it I think she must have died.

Mick Jagger made some reference to the Royal Wedding last night.
The Stones then played "Brown Sugar".

I suppose it's my fault somehow for not knowing the magic code I have to type in to get basic functionality?
Might it be because you are dead?
