Authors
Novelist and journalist Hanya Yanagihara has been named the editor of T: The New York Times Style Magazine (where she had previously worked as deputy editor before stepping aside about a year ago).
Digital Humanities Research Associate at University of Sheffield James O'Sullivan deployed stylometric methods to the works of James Patterson to conclude that his co-authors do most of the actual writing. "In each of the collaborative novels (we checked all where there was a relevant sample to test against – where the co-author had written individual texts), the dominant style is that of Patterson's co-authors. This is quantitative evidence that, when collaborating with a junior party, Patterson's contributions to the literary process are more concerned with plot than style."
