NY Times Liz Taylor Obit Written by Dead Writer

NY Times Liz Taylor Obit Written by Dead Writer An oddity floating around the internets today: The obituary run by the New York Times today for Liz Taylor was written by Mel Gussow. The catch? The obit has been on the shelf so long, that Gussow had in fact himself died 6 years ago

On a related note: coverjunkie has a nice collection of 71 Liz Taylor covers.

    Amazing, They really plan ahead, Mel was a visionary!

    I guess the editors figured there was no new story to tell in the last six years so what the hell run it?

    Definitely odd and a little creepy yet hopeful in the sense that now I can dream that death is not necessarily an obstacle to getting my work seen and heard.
