The ISFDB says that "Ilona Andrews" is a pseudonym used by Ilona Gordon
and Andrew Gordon (http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/ea.cgi?40941). If you
click "Ilona Gordon" or "Andrew Gordon", you will see each author's
bibliography.

Rosalind Erskine, Laura Black, Domini Taylor, and others were all used
by Roger Erskine Longrigg for various genres. A few of Domini Taylor's
titles would qualify as science fiction.

Excellent! Domini Taylor's ISFSB page lists three novels:

    _Teacher's Pet_ (1987)
    _Siege_ (1990)
    _The Eye Behind the Curtain_ (1993)

Thank you,

There's the case of Robert L. Forward which I'd like to know more about.  ISFDB (and is there a query function to generate at least a list of authors and pseudonyms if not sort them into male/female?) lists Susan Lull among his pseudonyms.  Her only work is "I Demand the Stars for My Children!" which appears to be semi-autobiographical fiction, which the editorial matter supports by noting she was born the year of the Wright Brothers' first flight, if not the day of it, as in the story, among other details.  It seems possible to me that Forward was writing semi-biographical fiction about his mother, or even ghosting for her.  It's even debatable if it is science fiction; it does meet one definition: being fiction published in a science fiction magazine.

I am not sure I understand the question correctly, but we have
"Author Directory" (http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/directory.cgi?author)

> if not sort them into male/female?)

Our author records do not have a field for the author's gender at this
time.

And perhaps you would do well to postpone coding for gender until
things settle down.  There's a line in Lawrence Durrell's
_Justine_, describing Alexandria (the one in Egypt) before World
War II:

"Five races, five languages, a dozen creeds ... but there are
more than five sexes and only demotic Greek seems to distinguish
among them."

We have had a number of extensive discussions re: this issue. So far
we have been unable to reach consensus.

As long as you have adequate provision of restrooms, 
I'd stop at that.

...This is probably okay, because the people living the issue haven't exactly
reached consensus yet either. (Other than on the "no, there's not only two
genders, and even mother nature demonstrates this regularly in infants" part.)

Interesting.  Let me try one, say "Sm"... maybe "Ms" instead... something in between; "Pa" should have Lewis Padgett appear on the first page.  For purposes of this thread it would be useful not only to know that is a pseudonym, but for whom it is a pseudonym.  Say build a list for every name with Pseudonym in the "Pseudonym?" column and the "Alternate Name Used By" field of its record, and the "Legal Name" field in the record of *those* names, because "C.L. Moore" isn't indicative, or, say, "Vin Packer" being a pseudonym for M.E. Kerr, whose legal name is Meaker, Marijane Agnes.

I suppose before we go further, I should say that as pop culture is to Dorothy, databases are to me.  You can explain, and I will thank you for your effort, but weeks/months/years from now I will make a comment by which you will know your explanation penetrated no further into my skull than my retinas.

Which may shortly prove to have been a boon, because of the current Y2Gender
issue.

Not about me, maybe. You do seem to care when you're misidentified?

Dave, I remember at least a few instances thereof

Yup.  57 years of being misidentified as female gets to one after a 
while.  And I know two other guys named Lynn.  One goes by his middle 
name like I do.

I must admit, getting mail or email to Ms. Lynn McGuire is an easy spam 
detector.

It's the "Lynn Swann" v "Lynn Anderson" problem,as I once
called it, in the 1970s.  I had a huge crush on a member of 
my high school class, named Lynn.  She was very cute and
quite smart.  Has a Phd in art history.

I kinda liked Lynn Anderson, too, come to think of it.

My campaign to get the ladies to change their names to "Lyn" has been a 
total failure.

Perhaps you should advocate for "Lynda" instead. It was good enough 
for Wonder Woman, after all.

Start watching old clips of Lynda Carter and you might have
a third event!  Be careful!

She still looks good.

Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman and Diana Rigg in form fitting leather
