I was thinking of doing a display of writing duos, whether it's two authors
on one book or husband and wife teams separately or together.I came across
an article in Bookpage on the internet featuring Faye Kellerman and her
husband Jonathan Kellerman which gave me the idea. If you could give me any
duos I will write up the list and post it.

Dick Francis' wife helped him a lot in the writing of his novels, although she isn't given credit on the books. (See article posted on this list on October 12 of this year).

Also, Judith Michael is a husband-wife writing team, I believe.
Deborah Shelley is the writing team of Deborah Mazoyer and Shelley Mosley.
Stephen King and Tabitha King are married.
Louise Erdrich was married to Michael Dorris before his death.

I know there are tons of others, but those are all I can think of off the top of my head.

And I guess one could list the Brontes, since they all wrote and were

>Binnie Syril Braunstein

A minor correction: this was true of the "classic" Ellery Queen.
However, late in his/their career, the "writing" half of the duo,
Lee, burned out, and some Queen hardcovers from THE PLAYER ON THE
OTHER SIDE (1963) on were written by various ghost writers from plot
outlines by Dannay:

THE PLAYER ON THE OTHER SIDE by Dannay and Theodore Sturgeon (1963)
AND ON THE EIGHTH DAY by Dannay and Avram Davidson (1964)
THE HOUSE OF BRASS by Dannay and Avram Davidson (1968)

(I'm not sure/don't recall if FACE TO FACE; COP OUT; A FINE AND PRIVATE
PLACE; and THE LAST WOMAN IN HIS LIFE were partially ghosted or not)

Additionally, A STUDY IN TERROR (a.k.a. SHERLOCK HOLMES VS. JACK THE
RIPPER) involved Dannay and Lee "framing sequences" in which Ellery
encountered an alleged Dr. Watsonian manuscript and, reading between
the lines, solved the Ripper murders as Holmes "had" done previously;
the Queen sequences were by Dannay and Lee, the Holmes sequences by
Paul Fairman.

And, starting in 1961 with DEAD MAN'S TALE, the name of "Ellery Queen"
was assigned to a number of quickie paperback mysteries written by
various people (including, in three cases, sf writer Jack Vance);
these did not feature Ellery as detective and had only slight input
from Dannay/Lee. There were also some earlier Big Little Books and
the like also credited to, but not written by, "Ellery Queen."

So, depending on how thoroughly one counts up all the above, one could
say that "Ellery Queen" was at different times at least 12 or 15
different people.

Tracy Hickman and Margaret Weis have written extensively together and a
few books separately. Mercedes Lackey and Larry Dixon are married and
have written several books together.
If you want to stretch things a little, Robin McKinley and Peter Dickinson
are married. However, they definitely made their fame separately.

Woolrich/Irish was also George Hopley, under which name he wrote what's
probably my favorite W/I/H novel, THE NIGHT HAS A THOUSAND EYES. But
I don't think he ever wrote a "collaboration with himself" (although I
vaguely recall that some stories published under one name in a magazine
may have been reprinted under another one in book form, a common enough
practice then and now for authors who use multiple pseudonyms).

Other examples of authors who have published books credited to two
names, both of which are really themselves, include Whitley Streiber
and "Jonathan Barry" (CAT MAGIC), John Wyndham and "Lucas Parkes"
(THE OUTWARD URGE) and Lester del Rey and "Erik Van Lihn" (POLICE
YOUR PLANET), all of which are sf/f titles. I can't think offhand
of examples from other fields (previous to Hunter/McBain) or of any
other examples in sf/f, for that matter. Seems singularly pointless
thing to do unless both names have built-in devoted followings (in
which case it seems like cheating...).

Since Evan Hunter's birth name was something like Sal Lombardino, one
could of course argue that both Evan Hunter and Ed McBain are pseudonyms
of a sort (though I believe he did do a legal name change to Evan
Hunter decades ago).

I’ll contribute a couple from the YA world: Jane Yolen and Bruce Coville
wrote a book called Armageddon Summer together, each writing the same set of
events from the point of view of a different character. The characters meet
often and “see” each other differently which makes the plot fascinating for
the reader. I assume that Coville wrote the boy and Yolen the girl, but
they are both so talented it could have been the other way around.

Paula Danzinger and Ann M. Martin, both famous juvenile and young adult
writers on their own, have co-written two books about friends who are pen
pals. The first is P.S. Longer Letter Later, and the second is Snail Mail
No More. As each girl is writing letters, it seems to be an easy division
of the writing, but I can’t tell who wrote what.

Yes, they were cousins.

Incidentally, Dannay published one nostalgic mainstream novel, THE GOLDEN
SUMMER (1953), under his birth name of Daniel Nathan. A couple excerpts
from it were published in ELLERY QUEEN'S MYSTERY MAGAZINE in the fifties,
even though one would have to stretch very hard for a definition of
"mystery" including them. (It helps to be your own editor...)

Dannay and Ross also published the four "Drury Lane" mystery novels
as "Barnaby Ross," of course; I'll note in case anyone has them
cataloged otherwise that the 1960s historical novels published as
by a "Barnaby Ross" were by someone else entirely coincidentally
using that name (e.g. were *not* by Dannay/Lee/"Queen").

I haven't replied to this thread yet becaue (a) the number of authors who
have published collaborations is so immense that I'm at a loss to start
and (b) as someone has already noted, there's already in the Archives a
long list of collaborative writers who are related to each other (spouses
or otherwise).

But since the thread shows no sign of dying, I'll note that no one (I
think) has so far mentioned a couple of prolific examples: in sf,
Fred Pohl and C.M. Kornbluth, and in general fiction, Nordhoff and Hall
(the MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY guys).

Sticking just to sf/f for the moment:

Both Pohl and Kornbluth have collaborated with others: Kornbluth
with Judith Merrill (Pohl's ex-wife, as it happens) as "Cyril Judd;"
Pohl in recent years with Jack Williamson and in the fifties with
Lester Del Rey as "Edson McCann" and early in his career with a number
of the other "Futurian" (club/commune) writers such as R.A. Lowndes
or Dirk Wylie under a bewildering array of pennames, most of which can
no longer be untangled. And he's collaborated as an editor at least
with his wife, Elizabeth Hull, among other people. He's also recently
sequelized an earlier solo novel in collaboration with Thomas T. Thomas
(MARS PLUS). And Williamson used to collaborate with Miles J. Breuer,
and Del Rey with one of his own pseudonyms (Erik Van Lhin), as well as
with Paul Fairman and Raymond F. Jones. Lowndes, besides doing a lot of
collaborative short story work in the thirties with Pohl, Kornbluth,
Wylie and others, did a full-length novel (THE DUPLICATED MAN) with
James Blish. Blish collaborated on STAR TREK novelizations with *his*
wife, Judith Lawrence, and with Norman L. Knight on the novel
A TORRENT OF FACES. And Fairman, as I noted the other day, collaborated
on A STUDY IN TERROR with "Ellery Queen," who was himself two people
most of the time. But in one case one of those people was Theodore
Sturgeon, who used to collaborate with James H. Beard (no relation to
the food writer) and later (on westerns) with Don Ward, and at other
times part of "Ellery Queen" was Avram Davidson, who collaborated with
*his* wife (later ex-wife) Grania Davis on one book and with Ward Moore
on an earlier one, plus a couple of short stories with someone whose
name escapes me at the moment. And all of the above (which could be
continued for a long while yet) is spun off from the one original
pairing of Pohl and Kornbluth. (Oops, almost forgot: Thomas L.
Thomas collaborated with Roger Zelazny, who did so with Philip K.
Dick, who did so with Ray Nelson; Zelazny also did so with Robert
Sheckley who did so with Harlan Ellison. And Ellison collaborated
with enough other sf writers at short story length to get a whole
book of such out of it: PARTNERS IN WONDER, which contains stories
by Ellison-and-:
Sheckley, Ben Bova, Davidson, Sturgeon, Joe Hensley, William Rotsler,
A.E. van Vogt, Henry Slesar, Samuel R. Delany, Algis Budrys, Robert
Silverberg, Keith Laumer, and Zelazny (plus a sort-of collaboration
with Robert Bloch, who has also in the past collaborated with Henry
Kuttner (who, as noted above, did most of his work in collaboration
with spouse C.L. Moore) and with Andre Norton (who these days is
collaborating, or at least putting her name on, books by a number
of younger writers, who in turn frequently collaborate in various
patterns with each others and other writers)))).

Endless chain, and that's still only sf/f, and still spun off from
one original pair. Where do you start? Where do you stop? (Well,
to answer the latter question, in my case, right now.)

Well, I finally got the list finished for Writing Duos. Sorry it took so
long. I took the list that Vicki mentioned from Fiction-L from 4/11/1998
and added on to it. Any duo who wrote under another name, I put that name
first. I also made three catagories, Husband & Wife, Other Family
Relationships and Others. Thanks for all your participation.
