Literary Botticelli, Round 4

Mmkay, so far this has been a ping-pong match between ironed_orchid and myself. Let's see if we can do something about that.

The object of the game is to guess the identity of an entity selected by the person who is It. In this version, that person must be associated with reading and writing - an author, a fictional character, a famous editor, a columnist, etc

Did you write thrillers which involved horse racing?

[marsianer]

If you were trying to get a y/n with that, rejoice. It worked.

[ironed_orchid]

YAY!

Are you male?

P.S. You are not Dick Francis.

[marsianer]

I am ashamed to admit that like everyone so far in this game, I am male.

[marsianer]

Doesn't ring a bell.

Have a y/n.

[marsianer]

Yep!

[chickenfeet2003]

Are you an annoying hobbit? - damn still a y/n open

[marsianer]

Not any longer. According to the rules, you'll have to post your question again, though.

[chickenfeet2003]

Damn - that would be a 'B' anyway

[marsianer]

Oops! You're right, it's the last name that counts.

[chickenfeet2003]

Are you a felonious employer of child labour?

[marsianer]

I honestly don't remember any such thing.

Have a y/n.

[chickenfeet2003]

So you are not Fagin

Do you appear in a novel?

[marsianer]

That I do.

[marsianer]

Certainly not.

Have a y/n.

[marsianer]

Ah, I suspected it was something 20xx related. Unfortunately, I never read those. But I don't remember the names of characters from the Rama books, which I've read, either, so it's all good.

I am not a child.
