Guardian Prize longlist 2012[edit]

Dying to Know You (Bodley Head, 2011) was one of eight books on the Guardian Prize 2012 longlist. The Guardian newspaper has published two reviews of the book, one by Patrick Ness[1] and one by the winner of its Young Critics competition[2]. --P64 (talk) 00:21, 29 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Pseudonym Malcolm Blacklin[edit]

ISFDB credits two works to Chambers under the alternative name Malcolm Blacklin: one shortfiction "Room 18" in an anthology edited by Aidan and Nancy Chambers Ghosts (Macmillan, 1969) and one anthology edited Ghosts Four (Macmillan, 1978). --among other works under his own name in what seems to be a Ghosts series.[3]

The list of works (now section 3, Books) does not cover any short fiction or books edited. On all that we say only "Chambers has also compiled and edited many other children's books, several concerning ghosts." So Malcolm Bracklin is not worth mentioning yet, imo. I put "him" in the hidden template {tl|Persondata}} only.
