Daderot: You're right about breaking my one paragraph into more than one...an improvement. I moved them around a bit more just so it flows a bit better and related info is again grouped and linked. I deleted the line about Pulitzer and NBA because once you start listing what an author hasn't won, the list is almost infinite. I think the implication in the current list of awards is that if he'd won anything else, it would be listed. Good info on his middle name too...don't think I had that info anywhere. -- Callooh
