That's exactly what I thought, when I read an article in today's DomPost
(the daily newspaper for Wellington, New Zealand). But this article says
that Lockhart *is* based upon her ex-husband. They've also had previous
articles on the names of the 6th book - starting with The Pillar title -
that came out very quickly after being discussed on this mailing list, so I
have always wondered if there were journalists on this list using the
information to write articles without checking their facts first! :)
